IPC - Identifying Ionic and Covalent Compunds

In our chemistry portion of  IPC, students did did a lab where they conducted tests on the physical properties of different compounds and compile data enabling them to classify the compounds as ionic or covalent. Students determined solubility, conductivity and melting point of four unknown substances. Based on their observations, students were able to determine which substance(s) were Ionic compounds and which substances where Covalent compounds.
