    Question

    Which of the following is a property of an ionic compound?

    1. High melting point
    2. Soft
    3. Malleable
    4. Liquid at room temperature

    Hint:

    Salts are ionic compounds.

    The correct answer is: High melting point

      • Ionic compounds are hard and brittle.
      • Ionic compounds are solid at room temperature.
      • Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling point.
      • Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
