Jan 26, 2015 · In molten state, the ionic compound is split into ions, and ions are charged particles that are free to move so ionic compounds in water or in molten state conduct electricity.

Jun 21, 2013 · Is the melting and boiling point of ionic bond usually higher than covalent bond? I know that compounds with ionic bonds are usually solid at room temperature, so I want other answers than …

Mar 24, 2014 · Entropy causes everything to become more disordered, and so ionic compounds will dissolve to increase entropy. Each ion can participate in multiple ion-dipole interactions when …

Apr 30, 2018 · A salt is an ionic compound that's formed during the neutralisation reaction between an acid and a base. So really, a salt can be described as an ionic compound where a hydrogen ion in an …

Jun 25, 2015 · 6 Ionic compounds are not unusual in being brittle Your starting assumption that ionic compounds are frequently brittle is misleading. Many, if not most, solids are brittle, ionic or not. The …

Jul 22, 2020 · When you melt an ionic compound, do you "break" its electrostatic force of attraction, or its lattice energy? When you melt an ionic compound, the ions are still there, and the electrostatic …

Aug 13, 2016 · Ionic compounds like strong acids and bases disassociate into individual ions, or if it is not dissolved but melted ionic dimers (like an individual Na+Cl- dimer for example). Do ionic …

Why do ionic compounds have higher melting and boiling points despite having smaller radii? I thought that the closer the two ions are, the larger the repulsive force, and therefore it should rather require …

Nov 21, 2017 · It is, therefore, wrong to talk of a molecule of an ionic compound. I know ionic solids exist in form of crystal lattice but why can't we isolate a single molecule of ionic compound?

Nov 12, 2015 · Though it is highly unlikely, has any carbon compound been found to make an ionic bond and to exhibit ionic properties?
