Describe what happens when an ionic compound is dissolved in water.?
Answer:
The attractions that the polar water molecules have for the individual ions are stronger than the attractions the ions have for each other. As a result, the water molecules pull the ions apart.
Higher temperature typically makes ionic compounds dissolve more and faster. This is due to:
a) the particles move faster at higher temperature
b) the water molecules spread out slightly providing more space to hold ions.
Water will pull the cations and anions apart. When an ionic compound is dissolved in water it will conduct electricity better. Increasing the temperature of the water allows this process to happen quicker while decreasing the temperature causes the process to slow.
