The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Which produces the greatest number of ions when one mole dissolves in water? a. NaCl b. NH4Cl c. NH4NO3 d. Na2SO4

Answer:

Na2SO4

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider the compounds listed in the options one after the other;

NaCl produces two moles of ions in solution

NH4Cl produces two moles of ions in solution

NH4NO3 produces two moles of ions in solution

Na2SO4 produces three moles of ions in solution

We can see that Na2SO4 produces the greatest number of ions when one mole of the substance is dissolved in water, hence the answer above.
