Sagot :

The characteristics of the ionic bonds allows to find the results for the question about which compound are ionic is:

    d) Compounds D and A.

Chemical compounds are formed by atoms linked by electrostatic forces, where one of the elements gave up some electrons and the other element acquired these electrons, the two atoms being in an ionic state, consequently the bond is strong and has several characteristics:

  • High melting point.
  • It dissolves in polar solvent (water).
  • In general they are hard and brittle solids (NaCl).
  • In solution they are conductors of electricity.

In these characteristics, let's analyze the compounds in the table.

  • With the property of high melting point the compounds A and D can be ionic.
  • According to the dissolution property all could be ionic.
  • According to the conduction property of electricity, compounds A and D can be ionic

Let's review the different alternatives:

a) False. Compound A and B has a low melting point.

b) False. The B and C compounds have low melting points.

c) False. Compound C has a low melting point.

d) True. The two compounds meet all the characteristics of ionic compounds.

In conclusion with the characteristics of the ionic bonds we can find the results for the question about which compound are ionic is:

       d) Compounds D and A are ionics.
