These oppositely charged compounds are strongly held by electrostatic forces of attraction as these be together for a long time the rise in temparature occurs so that the the melting points rises in them.
Answer:
Energy was released
Explanation:
Decrease in temperature means less energy, but the energy had to have been transferred because energy can't be destroyed or created. So if the temp. went down, energy must have been lost. (If it had been absorbed, the temp. would have gone up)
Can hold max of 8 electrons
