Analysis

1 a) covalent- potassium iodide, acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and sucrose.

b) ionic- calcium chloride, sodium chloride.

2 covalent
.Low melting and boiling point
.Soft and brittle
.Solid forms
.Low enthalpies of a fusion or vaporization
Ionic
.high melting and boiling point
.conductive when they are liquid

Conclusions
covalent bonds have low melting points and boiling points and are soft and brittle. Also
ionic bonds on the other hand have high melting and boiling points and are conductive
while in water.
