Chemical Proporties

?
What structure does ionic compounds make?
Giant ionic lattice structure
1 of 6
What are giant ionic lattice structures bonded together with?
strong electrostatic forces between oppositely charged ions (also known as ionic bonds)
2 of 6
Do ionic compounds have a high or low melting and boiling point?
High
3 of 6
Can ionic compounds conduct electricity?
Only if they're liquids
4 of 6
What are intramolecular forces?
Forces between molecules
5 of 6
Why are small covalent molecules liquids or gases at room temperature?
When small molecules melt or boil, it's the weak intermolecular forces that break. Since these intermolecular forces are weak and break easily, simple covalent molecules have very low melting and boiling points.
