Which of the following statements is about ionic compounds? They __________. *
1 point
A. are thermal and electrical conductors
B. are weaker than covalent bonds
C. have high melting and boiling points
D. are formed from a metal and a nonmetal​


Sagot :

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Ionic bond is much stronger than covalent bond because it involves complete transfer of electrons because of which there is formation of cation and anion and there exist huge electrostatic forces of attraction. They also have high melting and boiling point which proves that the ionic bond is very strong.

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

onic bonds are the strongest type of chemical bond and, therefore, most compounds remain solid with very high melting points. In contrast, covalent bonds are quite weak and hence most compounds exist in the gaseous phase.
