Answer: Anna stated that ionic compounds have high melting point and low boiling point. The error in the statement is that ionic compound have low boiling point, instead ionic compounds have high boiling point, because in an ionic compound, the force of attraction working between two ions is very strong and hence the bonds present are very strong, and a lot of energy is needed to break them
So its temperature will not rise, since kinetic energy of molecules remains the same. The quantity of heat absorbed or released when a substance changes its physical phase at constant temperature (e g. From solid to liquid at melting point or from liquid to gas at boiling point) is termed as its latent heat.
The type of energy used is kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
Yes it is a exothermic reaction.
