Compound 1 has a melting point of 545 degrees celsius and dissolves well in water?
The high melting point points toward an ionic compound. Ionic compounds dissolve in water ie a a polar solvent. Therefore, it is probably ionic. Next you have to pick up a chemical data book and look at melting points of ionic compounds to find one that has this melting point.
Why do ionic compound have high elctrical conductivity in the molten state and in water solution?
Ionic compounds are the compounds with dissociate into cations and anions when dissolved in solution. For example regular table salt (NaCl) is a ionic compound when dissolved in water dissociate into Na+ and Cl- , such a solution then can conduct electricity. Pure water with no impurities (no dissolved ions) is a modest insulater. Ionic compounds are combination of a metal and a non-metal.
When magnesium and chlorine react what type of bond is formed?
Magnesium is an s-block element and it forms only ionic bonds with other elements.
Why does solid iodine not stick to fingerprints?
iodine is a covalent compound and no ionic properties. there are no free electrons on it. so it can not conduct electricity.
Is sodium carbonate molecular?
It contains both covalent and ionic bonds. In carbonate ion (CO32-) there are covalent bonds (C-O, C-O and C=O). Between carbonate ion (CO32-) and 2 sodium ions (Na-, Na-) there are ionic bonds. Na2CO3 is a salt.
