3 of 16
In all?
directions
4 of 16
They also have very high?
melting and boiling points
5 of 16
This is due to the strong?
bonds between the ions
6 of 16
These need lots of?
energy
7 of 16
To?
overcome
8 of 16
When an ionic compound is solid what are the ions like?
held in fixed positions
9 of 16
This means it cannot?
conduct electricity
10 of 16
How can this be solved?
By melting or dissolving in water
11 of 16
