Question

Which ions are being produced by this process, assuming that each of the chemical compounds dissociate into their constituent parts once they are dissolved in water?

Answer 1

• The cations and anions are produced when ionic compounds are dissolved into water.

Step-by-step explanation:

• When ionic compounds dissolved in water,they dissociates into ions such a process is known as dissociation.

Reason:

This dissociation is basically occur due to attractions of polar water molecules towards cation and anionic ions. Water molecules surround the these ions.

Example:

• When NaCl is dissolved into watre, NaCl compounds dissociate into ions as follow

1. NaCl (s) + H2O ⇔ Na+ + Cl−
