A property generally NOT exhibited by ionic compounds is
Ahigh melting point
Bconduction of electricity in the solid state
Cconduction when molten
Dsolubility in water
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. conduction of electricity in the solid state
Ionic solids do not conduct in the solid state (ions are locked in the lattice). They conduct only when molten or dissolved, where ions are free to move.
