Are ionic bonds solids liquids or gases at room temperature?

Answer 1

All ionic compounds are solid at room temperature because ionic bonds are very strong and it takes a lot of heat energy to break them to turn them into a liquid or a solid. 400-1400 degrees can be used to break the bonds.

Answer 2

all i knoe is that ionic compounds are amorphous solids at room temp and yess they tend to have very very high melting points due to the fact that the cations are very closy bonded and to break thaa bond u must take Bunsen burner flame and heat to high temps i hope i have helped u.... i just happend to be doing chem for a test tom and i saw this lmaooo hahah

Answer 3

An ionic compound is a solid when NOT in solution.

An ionic compound is soluble in water, and other polar solvents.

Answer 4

Solid.

I am unaware of a single compound considered ionic that is a gas or liquid at room temperature.

Answer 5

All ionic compounds have very high boiling points due to high intermolecular forces, so most if not all of them are solid at room temperature.

Answer 6

No. They are crystalline.
