The properties of coordinate covalent compounds are discussed briefly.
1. Physical state - compounds can be found as gases, liquids, or solids.
2. Electrical conductivity - Covalent compounds, coordinate compounds also do not have charged particles (ions), so they are .
3. Melting point - These compounds have than pure covalent compounds but lower melting and boiling points than pure ionic compounds.
4. Solubility - in polar solvents such as water but are soluble in non-polar solvents such as benzene, CCl4, and toluene.
5. Reactions - molecular reactions occur in coordinate covalent compounds.
