Ionic Solids
IONIC SOLIDS: Compounds with ionic bonds
Ionic solids are also called: 1. Salts
2. Crystals
Properties of ionic solids:
1. Only conduct electricity in liquid/aqua
(because charge and mobility are needed to
Crystalline structure
conduct electricity)
2. Crystalline structure
3. High melting and boiling points (because they have strong bonds)
