1 Ionic and Covalent Compounds
Chapter 10 Section 1

2 Ionic Compounds and Their Properties
An ionic bond is an attraction between oppositely charged ions. Ionic compounds tend to : Be brittle solids at room temperature Have high melting points Be highly soluble in water Conduct electricity in solution

3 Covalent Compounds and Their Properties
Covalent compounds are formed when atoms share electrons. Properties of covalent compounds: Some are not soluble in water Low melting points Some do not form ions in water and do not conduct electricity

4 Metallic Bonds and their Properties
Metallic bonds are formed when metal elements bond and their electron levels overlap. Properties of metallic bonds: - Malleable & ductile - have high melting points - conducts electricity and heat
