high melting and boiling point in room

temperature due to the strong electrostatic


attractive forces
Ionic compound
Soluble in water, because of the fact that
water is polar

high melting and boiling point in room


temperature due to the positive ions and the
sea of delocalised electons Bonding and physical properties
Metallic bonding
Metal do not dissolve in water due to the
force of attraction between the ions and the
delocalised electrons is too grea

low melting and boiling point due to low


covalent bonding
intermolecular force

the strongest type of intermolecular force


but weaker than covalent bonds. It is a Hydrogen bonding Formation between metal and non-metal
strong type of pd-pd force Ionic bonding
