ionic state at room temp
solid due to strong electrostatic forces…high melting and boiling points as lots of energy is needed to overcome forces
metal state at room temp
solid…high melting and boiling point as there are strong attractive forces between cations and the sea of delocalised electrons
covalent state at room temp
simple molecular structures are liquid or gas…giant covalent structures are solid
ionic solubility
soluble in water…water molecules are polar and attracted to ions on ionic compound surface
metal solubility
don’t dissolve in water…force of attraction between cations and delocalised electrons are too great
covalent compounds
some soluble and some insoluble
hydrolysis
breakdown of a compound by water
ionic electrical conductivity
only when molten as ions become mobile
metals electrical conductivity
when solid and molten due to delocalised electrons
covalent electrical conductivity
dont conduct due to no mobile electrons or ions
