Hydrogen Chloride
HCl (Hydrogen Chloride) is a covalent compound and forms a covalent bond. However, if water is added to hydrogen chloride, it forms hydrochloric acid which is an ionic compound that has ionic bonds.
If a compound dissolves into water and allows for the conductance of electrical current its said to be ionic and an electrolyte. Sodium chloride (NaCl) or table salt exhibits this property. Sugar is a compound that will dissolve in water but not conduct current. Sugar is not an electrolyte or ionic; rather a covalent molecule.
