Ionic bonding is formed in Ionic compounds due to electrostatic force between the oppositely charged ions.

In covalent bonds electrons are shared between the atoms. In case of ionic bond the bond is stronger as there is complete transfer of electrons from one ion to the other.

Since the ionic bonds are more difficult to break than the covalent bonds, ionic compounds have a higher melting point than covalent compounds.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Ionic compounds have high melting points than covelent compounds because ionic compounds have strong bonding which needs high amount of energy to break.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Ionic compounds are formed from strong electrostatic interactions between ions.
Ionic bonds are very strong - a lot of energy is needed to break them.
Covalent compounds have bonds where electrons are shared between atoms.
They are relatively weak bonds, they need low amount of energy to break.

Explanation:

We can see in both pictures there is a black molecule and a red molecule. However, we also have a purple molecule in one image and a yellow in the other. It would LIKELY be the same because we have more of the same molecules then more different molecules. Hope this helps
