Ionic compounds do not have

A

Hard and brittle nature

B

High melting and boiling point

C

Directional properties

D

Soluble in polar solvents

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Directional means bonded atoms prefer specific orientations in space relative to one another. In ionic bonds there is no electron sharing, charge is uniform in all direction, so do not show directional properties.
