ionic bond if formed through a strong electrostatic forces of attraction between positive and negative ion

high mp n bp due to the strong electrostatic force of attraction, require a lot of heat energy to overcome the force

can conduct in molten n aqueos state due to free moving ion

cannot conduct in solid state because ions are lattice formed(no moving ions)
