Anna stated that ionic compounds have high melting points and low boiling points. She said that this demonstrates that ionic compounds have strong bonds because a lot of energy is needed to break the electrical forces that hold the bonds together.Which statement best describes Anna’s error?

A
Strong electrical forces will make ionic compounds have high boiling points.
B
Strong electrical forces will make ionic compounds have weak bonds.
C
A low amount of energy is needed to break the bonds in ionic compounds.
D
Gravitational forces hold the bonds together in ionic compounds.

These diagrams show two atoms of fluorine and an atom of magnesium.

Question illustration
A
A magnesium atom accepts six electrons from the fluorine atoms → Each fluorine atom donates three of the electrons → The magnesium atom becomes a -2 ion → Each fluorine atom becomes a +1 ion
B
A magnesium atom donates two electrons to the fluorine atoms → Each fluorine atom accepts one of the electrons → The magnesium atom becomes a -2 ion → Each fluorine atom becomes a +1 ion
C
A magnesium atom accepts two electrons from the fluorine atoms → Each fluorine atom donates one of the electrons → The magnesium atom becomes a -2 ion → Each fluorine atom becomes a +1 ion
D
A magnesium atom donates two electrons to the fluorine atoms → Each fluorine atom accepts one of the electrons → The magnesium atom becomes a +2 ion → Each fluorine atom becomes a -1 ion
