Solution

The correct option is A True
Ionic Liquids like alcohol and ether frequently share a number of attractive properties that distinguish them from conventional organic solvents, such as low (and even effectively-null) vapor pressure, a wide liquid range, low flammability, high conductivity (e.g., ionic, thermal), excellent stability (e.g., thermal, chemical, redox, radiochemical), a wide electrochemical potential window, and the ability to act as surprisingly good solvents towards many substances.
Ionic Liquids are a new class of purely ionic, salt-like materials that are liquid at unusually low temperatures.
Hence, the statement is true.
