A.they have low melting points
B.they from crystals with characteristic shapes
C.they contain no charged particles
__________________________________________________________________
they are metals (not pure metals like copper or iron) like salt. they are a crystalline structure.
Hard, yet brittle.
high melting point
Salts are formed by a ionic bond.
There is one very important property of ionic compounds. Ionic compounds are compounds that will conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
low melting point
"Shares electrons" is a characteristic of covalent bonds, which form covalent compounds.
their high boling point
low melting point. ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. They conduct electricty in solution or in molten state unlike covalent compounds and carbon compounds which are poor conductors of electricity .

in a ionic compounds the characteristic colors of the reactants and the products are caused by the positive or negative ions in the compounds?
most ionic compounds disolve
Salt is made of crystals.
their high boling point
the properties of an ionic compound can be explained by ht e strong attractions among ions within a crystal lattice.
If you think to ionic compounds:- dissociation in water- good solubility in water- as solids they are insulators- high melting point
low melting point. ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. They conduct electricty in solution or in molten state unlike covalent compounds and carbon compounds which are poor conductors of electricity .
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when molten or dissolved. Also, they have high melting and boiling points. Most are soluble in polar solvents such as water. Also they have a crystal structure or crystal lattice.
1) Ionic compounds are not good heat conductors 2) Ionic compounds are not malleable
