Using a combination of simulation and experimental techniques, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Material Science and Engineering researchers have been able to identify the electric double layer ...

Ionic bonds are very strong so the melting point of an ionic compound is high. Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in the solid state because their ions are unable to move about. However, if an ...
