Ionic compounds tend to have lower melting and boiling points than molecular ...

Answer:

Ionic compounds typically have much higher melting points than molecular compounds. ... To melt a molecular substance, you need to break these weak intermolecular forces between neutral molecules, which is why ionic compounds generally have much higher melting points than molecular compounds.
