What is the conclusion of the properties of ionic and covalent compounds?

What properties do most covalent compounds have in common?
Most molecular compounds do not conduct electricity and have low melting points.
Do covalent compounds display luster?
Yes. The question is what TYPE of luster. Luster is, to put it in layman's terms, a description of how "shiny" something is. Everything has a luster; it could be metallic, greasy, or flat.
What compounds does oxygen form?
ionic and covalent compound
Is CsBr covalent or ionic?
CsBr is both polar and ionic, but is not covalent.
Why are the properties of covalent compounds so diverse?
the diversity of physical properties among covalent compounds is mainly because of widely varying intermolecular attraction

Does covalent bonds display luster?
Chemical bonds are too small to see, but some covalent compounds, such as gem stones, display luster.
How are the properties of molecular compounds different from those of ionic cmpounds?
Molecular (covalent) compounds are not dissociated in water.
What properties do most covalent compounds have in common?
Most molecular compounds do not conduct electricity and have low melting points.
What is the properties of covalent bond?
Covalent compounds generally have much lower melting and boiling points that ionic compounds. Covalent compounds are soft and squishy. Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable that ionic compounds. Covalent compounds don't conduct electricity in water. Covalent compounds aren't usually very soluble in water.
Organic compounds are also covalent compounds what properties would you expect organic compounds to have as a result?
They have a higher boiling point and lower melting point and is flamable.
What are two physical properties that differ between covalent and ionic bonds?
There are more than two. In general: Covalent compounds have low melting and boiling points while ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points. Ionic compounds are good conductors of electricity when melted, while covalent compounds are not. Ionic compounds are soluble in water, while covalent compounds are soluble in non-polar liquids. These are the essentials, but other differences exist. All of these are generalizations, exceptions do occur.
What properties are the same for ionic and covalent compound?
All compounds are made out of atoms of the same element or differed elements.
What types of compounds are formed by covalent bonds?
Covalent compounds are formed by covalent bonds.
Are covalent compounds soluble in hexane?
It depends on the compound. nonpolar covalent compounds will generally be soluble whie polar covalent compounds will not be.
Is telephone receiver a ionic or covalent compound?
covalent compounds --------- It is inadequate to discuss about a telephone in terms of ionic and covalent compounds.
