at room temperature and normal atmospheric pressure, covalent compounds may exist as a solid, a liquid, or a gas, whereas ionic compounds exist only as solids. ionic compounds exist in stable crystalline structures. therefore, they have higher melting and boiling points compared to covalent compounds.
