State any properties of Ionic compounds.

Explanation

Ionic componds are solids and hare hard dut to strong force of attraction between positive and negative ions.
They are generally brittle and break into pieces when pressureis applied.
(iii) Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points, as a considerable amount of energy is required to break the stron inter molecular forces of attraction .
(iv) They are generally soluble in water, and insoluble in solvents such as kerosen, petrol etc.
(v) Ionic compound do not conduct wlectricity in solid state, due to their rigid structure. They condut electricity in molten state or in solution in solvent like water.
