Potassium chloride is an ionic compound. The bond holding the atoms together is known as ionic bond. Strictly speaking it is NOT a discrete molecule of K + Cl- but a crystal lattice consisting of each K+ surrounded by Cl- ions and vice versa. The bonds in this lattice all have to be broken to melt the compound. There is a strong electrostatic force of attraction between the chloride ions and the potassium ions. A large amount of heat energy has to be applied to break the strong bond holding the atoms, resulting in the compound having a high melting point.
KCl, or potassium chloride, is a solid that belongs to the class of ionic compounds. It exists as a crystalline solid at room temperature and has a high melting point.
Iodine, at p=p0,Boiling point 457.4 K,  184.3 °C(So I don't know if you'd call this high or low? compared with what?)However the difference with melting point of Iodine (386.85 K,  113.7 °C) is remarkably small (< 71oC) and the solid is quite vaporous far below its boiling point (Triple point 386.65K (113.5oC), 12.07 kPa, just below melting point).
No, potassium chloride is a compound made of potassium and chloride ions. Elemental potassium refers to pure potassium in its uncombined form.
Copper(II) chloride has a high melting point compared to ethane because it has ionic bonding, which requires more energy to break compared to the weak van der Waals forces between ethane molecules. In ionic compounds like copper(II) chloride, the positive and negative ions are strongly attracted to each other, resulting in a higher melting point.
The melting point of potassium chloride is relatively high, around 776 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, potassium chloride transitions from a solid to a liquid state.
The melting point of potassium chloride (KCl) is 770 degrees Celsius.

Potassium iodide has a high melting point because it consists of strong ionic bonds between potassium and iodine atoms. These bonds require a significant amount of energy to break, resulting in a high melting point for the compound.
Strontium chloride has a high melting point because of the strong attraction between the strontium cations and chloride anions in its crystal lattice. These ionic bonds require significant energy to break, leading to a high melting point.
