Characteristics of Dative…

Characteristics of Dative – The important characteristics of dative compounds are as follows:
(i) Compounds are generally as stable as covalent compounds.
(ii) The melting and boiling points of these compounds are higher as compared to covalent compounds but lower than those of ionic compounds.
(iii) These compounds are sparingly soluble in polar solvents like water, however these are readily soluble in organic solvents.
