The X-ray analysis of ionic compounds reveals that they exist as molecules. Correct Answer B, C and D

  • Ionic compounds have a high melting point and high boiling point.
  • Ionic compounds are soluble in polar solvents like water, etc. and not in non-polar solvents (benzene, etc.).
  • The X-ray analysis of ionic compounds reveals that they exist as ions and not molecules.
  • Ionic compounds are generally found in the solid state.
