Answer:

Explanation:

We can only talk about resonance hybrid for a compound in which more than one structure is possible based on its observed chemical properties.

There are compounds whose chemical properties can not be satisfactorily explained on the basis of a single chemical structure. In the case of such compounds, we invoke the idea of resonance.

A resonance hybrid is a single structure drawn to represent a given chemical specie which exhibits resonance behaviour and can otherwise be represented on paper in the form of an average of two or more chemical structures separated each from the next by a double-headed arrow.

Which of the following is a property of an ionic compound?
svet-max [94.6K]
Ionic compound is a chemical compound composed of ionsheld together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding. The compound is neutral overall, but consists of positively charged ions called cations and negatively charged ions called anions. These can be simple ions such as the sodium (Na+) and chloride (Cl−) in sodium chloride, or polyatomic species such as the ammonium (NH+
4) and carbonate (CO2−
3) ions in ammonium carbonate. Individual ions within an ionic compound usually have multiple nearest neighbours, so are not considered to be part of molecules, but instead part of a continuous three-dimensional network, usually in a crystalline structure.

Ionic compounds containing hydrogen ions (H+) are classified as acids, and those containing basic ions hydroxide (OH−) or oxide (O2−) are classified as bases. Ionic compounds without these ions are also known as salts and can be formed by acid–base reactions. Ionic compounds can also be produced from their constituent ions by evaporation of their solvent, precipitation, freezing, a solid-state reaction, or the electron transfer reaction of reactivemetals with reactive non-metals, such as halogen gases.

Ionic compounds typically have high melting and boiling points, and are hardand brittle. As solids they are almost always electrically insulating, but when melted or dissolved they become highly conductive, because the ions are mobilized.

This is answer

high melting point
