i dunno my dumb teacher wants me to find out she should ask a dam scientist!
Most of the metals tend to form the ionic compounds.
compounds of s-block elements are most ionic.
Also, non-metals mostly halogens form ionic compounds.
Metals and nonmetals tend to form ionic compounds by forming ionic bonds when they combine.
They can form ionic compounds with halogens.
The Center
Organic compounds tend NOT to be ionic - there are exceptions. Organic Chemistry is defined as the Chemistry of Compounds of Carbon. Ionic forces tend to intercede when we add Oxygen.
Covalent compounds tend to be negatively charged than an ionic compound.

Sodium chloride is the ionic compound the forms a solid state. This s taught in science.
Elements on opposite sides of the periodic table, for example Groups 1 and 17, form ionic compounds. Examples include LiCl, NaCl, KI, and RbBr. The elements in Group 1 are the alkali metals, and the elements in Group 17 are the halogens, which are nonmetals.
four properties of ionic compound are: 1-All ionic compounds form crystals 2-Ionic compounds are very hard and very brittle 3-Ionic compounds conduct electricity when they dissolve in water 4-Ionic compounds tend to have high melting and boiling points and 3 ionic compounds are: Sodium Chloride - Na Cl Potassium Fluoride - KF Magnesium Chloride - MgCl2
"When struck with a sharp blow, ionic compounds tend to (crack) while metallic substances, which are (covalently bonded), change shape."This makes the most sense. A lot of ionic compounds form salts which are crystalline and brittle in solid form. This is obviously homework but what a terrible question, right down to the punctuation.
Solids.
In an ionic compound, atoms transfer electrons from one to the other, creating oppositely charged ions. The ionic bond is an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds tend to form between metals and nonmetals. In covalent compounds, atoms share electrons. Most covalent compounds form between nonmetals.
Ionic compounds have a higher melting point.
