In general, ionic compounds are hard solids at ambient temperatures but they shatter fairly easily. How do these two properties support the theory of ionic bonding?

Answer :

Ionic or electrovalent compounds support the theory of ionic bonding because they are compounds composed of charged particles formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.

Electrovalent compounds posses:

  • High boiling and melting points.
  • Form crystals.

What is ionic bonding?

This is the transfer of valence electrons from metals to non metals to form ionic compounds. It also refers to a chemical bond formed between two ions with opposite charges.
