What compounds break up into ions in solution?

Ionic compounds are dissociated in water solution.


Ionic compounds produce ions in solution by?

Dissociation.


Will an ionic compound conduct electricity as a solid?

Ionic compounds are conductors in solution or melted.


What formula dissolves in water to form an ionic solution?

most ionic compounds will dissolve in water to form ions in solution.


In a solution can the charged regions of water molecules pull ionic compounds apart?

Most ionic compounds dissolve in water. In this sense water does indeed pull them apart as the ionic lattice is destroyed as the ions move into solution.


In Which state do ionic compounds and covalent compounds conduct electricity?

Ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state (melted) or when dissolved in a solution. Covalent compounds do not conduct electricity. Period.


What happens when you cool an ionic compound?

Nothing, ionic compounds on cooling remain as they were.


How do you dissolve ionic compounds?

By placing them in Water. This is called an aqueous solution.


What type of compounds can exist as liquids solids or gases?

Ionic compounds conduct electricity as liquids and in solution.


Why do ionic compound have high elctrical conductivity in the molten state and in water solution?

Ionic compounds are the compounds with dissociate into cations and anions when dissolved in solution. For example regular table salt (NaCl) is a ionic compound when dissolved in water dissociate into Na+ and Cl- , such a solution then can conduct electricity. Pure water with no impurities (no dissolved ions) is a modest insulater. Ionic compounds are combination of a metal and a non-metal.


Can water molecules pull ionic compounds apart?

Most ionic compounds dissolve in water. In this sense water does indeed pull them apart as the ionic lattice is destroyed as the ions move into solution.


How is the electric current carry through the solution of the ionic compounds?

by moving the ions
