No, ionic solids have very high melting points. Ionic solids are one of the strongest bonds formed among elements.
Simple molecular substances typically have low melting and boiling points. This is because the weak intermolecular forces, such as London dispersion forces, in simple molecular substances are easily overcome compared to the stronger bonds in ionic or metallic substances.
They have low melting points and high reactivity.
No. They have very high melting points because they are extremely strong. This is because of the transfer of electrons between the atoms in the bond. Molecular generally have low melting points.
In general, ionic compounds have high melting points due to the strong electrostatic forces holding the ions together in a lattice structure. This results in a significant amount of energy required to break these bonds, leading to high melting points.
Ionic solids are crystalline structures composed of ions held together by strong electrostatic forces, while ionic liquids are molten salts that exist as a liquid at temperatures below their melting point due to weaker intermolecular forces. Ionic solids have a fixed melting point and are typically solid at room temperature, while ionic liquids are liquid at room temperature and exhibit unique properties like high thermal stability and low vapor pressure.
The melting and boiling points of molecular compounds are generally quite low compared to those of ionic compounds. This is because the energy required to disrupt the intermolecular forces between molecules is far less than the energy required to break the ionic bonds in a crystalline ionic compound

The melting points and boiling points of molecular covalent compounds (ones with discrete molecules) are lower than ionic solids and giant molecule covalent compounds like (silica, SiO2) because the forces that attract them together in the solid and the liquid states (van der waals, hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces) are weaker than ionic (or covalent) bonds.
They have low melting points and high reactivity.
The bonds in the molecule are weaker.
That depends on the solid: ice has a very low melting point, lard and butter have low melting points, chocolate has a relatively low melting point, wax has an intermediate melting point, lead has a high melting point, iron has a very high melting point, tungsten has an extremely high melting point.
Compounds bonded by covalent bonds do not necessarily have low melting points. Some have whereas some don't have.Some polymers and hydrocarbons have very high melting points. But it can be said that they don't have melting points as high as ionic compounds. It is so because ionic bonds are stronger than the covalent bonds.
The covalent bond is not so strong as the ionic bond.
No. They have very high melting points because they are extremely strong. This is because of the transfer of electrons between the atoms in the bond. Molecular generally have low melting points.
In general, ionic compounds have high melting points due to the strong electrostatic forces holding the ions together in a lattice structure. This results in a significant amount of energy required to break these bonds, leading to high melting points.
These are alkali metals, such as lithium, sodium, and potassium. They have low densities and low melting points relative to other metals due to their atomic structure and metallic bonding. They are highly reactive and must be stored in oil to prevent reactions with moisture or oxygen in the air.
