Explanation / Answer

Iron(II) chloride, FeCl2 is an ionic compound. Ionic compounds are generally hard, brittle and crystalline in nature. They have high melting and boiling points due to strong electrostatic interection between the oppositely charges ions. They conduct electricity when dissolved in water and in molten state. They are soluble only in polar solvents as ionic compounds are polar compounds. Hence, the correct options that apply are:
