Question

Which is a difference between molecular compounds and ionic compounds?
Select the correct answer below:
Molecular compounds typically form between a metal and a nonmetal, while ionic compounds typically form
between nonmetals.
Molecular compounds result from the transfer of electrons between atoms to form ions, while ionic compounds
result from the sharing of electrons between neutral atoms.

Molecular compounds are formed of discrete, neutral atoms, while ionic compounds are formed of large repeating
arrays
of opposite charges.
Molecular compounds have high melting points and high boiling points, while ionic compounds are typicaly found
as gases or low-melting solids and low-boiling liquids.
