Answers (1)

An ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions to form an ionic compound. The greater the charge of an ion the stronger the ionic bond as the attraction between the positive nuclei and the negative outer electrons is greater and therefore the higher the melting point and boiling points are.
