IONIC BOND AND COVALENT PROPERTIES:
_____________________
FIVE PROPERTIES OF IONIC BOND
1.) High Melting Points and High Boiling Points
2.) Hard and Brittle
3.) Good Insulators
4.) Higher Enthalpies of Fusion and Vaporization than Molecular Compounds.
5.) They form Crystals
FIVE PROPERTIES OF COVALENT
1.) Low Melting Points and Boiling Points.
2.) Low Enthalpies of Fusion and Vaporization.
3.) Soft or Brittle Solid Forms.
4.) Poor Electrical and Thermal Conductivity.
5.) Covalent Compounds don’t dissolve well in water.
