Anna stated that ionic compounds have high melting points and low boiling points. She said that this demonstrates that ionic compounds have strong bonds because a lot of energy is needed to break the electrical forces that hold the bonds together.

Which statement best describes Anna’s error?

Strong electrical forces will make ionic compounds have high boiling points.
Strong electrical forces will make ionic compounds have weak bonds.
A low amount of energy is needed to break the bonds in ionic compounds.
Gravitational forces hold the bonds together in ionic compounds.

The statement which best describes Anna’s error is: A. strong electrical forces will make ionic compounds have high boiling points.

The type of chemical bonds.

In Chemistry, there are different types of chemical bonds and these include the following:

  • Metallic bonds
  • Hydrogen bonds
  • Covalent bonds
  • Ionic bonds

An ionic bond is typically characterized by electrostatic attraction that is formed between oppositely charged ions or atoms of chemical elements with different electronegativities.

In conclusion, Anna was wrong to posit that strong electrical forces makes all ionic compounds to have high boiling points.
