High melting point- String attraction between oppositely charged ions so, it requires lots of energy to break
Structure- strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a lattice. so, it requires lots of energy to break it
Diamond- it is a giant covalent molecule with many strong covalent bond between its atom. so it requires lots of energy to break

Coordinate bonding is where one atom donates 2 electrons to an atom or ion to form a bond
Bond dipole moment is a measure of the strength and direction of the polarity in the bond. so the bigger the difference in electronegativity bigger the bond dipole moment
Non polar covalent bond form when the two atoms in a covalent bond have the same electronegativity e.g cl2
Polar covalent bond is when the two atoms in a covalent bond have a different electronegativity. so the two electrons are not shared equally
