Many ionic compounds do NOT dissolve in water- such as calcium carbonate. The majority do and that is because the solvation of the ions is energetically favourable in those compounds.

Will water dissolve in ionic or covalent compounds?
Water is a liquid and is usually considered to be the solvent. Water dissolves solutes. Many ionic compounds, but not all, are soluble in water. Water has negative and positive areas on the molecule so it is ideally suited to dissolving the negative and positive ions of an ionic substance. Purely covalent compounds, non-polar, are not supported by water so do not dissolve. Purely covalent, non-polar compounds have no negative and positive areas for the water to support.
Does ionic compound dissociates?
no,DissociationWhen ionic compounds dissolve to produce ions the process is typically called dissociation.IonizationWhen molecular compounds dissolve in water to produce ions the process is typically called ionization.
What is three ionic compound?
four properties of ionic compound are: 1-All ionic compounds form crystals 2-Ionic compounds are very hard and very brittle 3-Ionic compounds conduct electricity when they dissolve in water 4-Ionic compounds tend to have high melting and boiling points and 3 ionic compounds are: Sodium Chloride - Na Cl Potassium Fluoride - KF Magnesium Chloride - MgCl2
Will NaCrO4 dissolve in water?
Na2CrO4 will dissolve in water as will all sodium compounds.
Do metalic bonds dissolve in water?
No. Ionic bonds dissolve in water the best.
What is the most soluble in water?
Methanol, ethanol, and propanol, all dissolve %100 in water. Also group 1 metal ionic compounds dissolve extremely well in water.

No. Ionic bonds dissolve in water the best.
Are all ionic compounds Almost all ionic compounds are soluble in water?
Almost all. Some such as calcium carbonate, silver chloride are not soluble. Generally ionic compounds are soluble in water due to their ionic bonds which makes them easy to dissociate in polar solutions such as water.
What is the Ionic compound of silver?
The most common one, which can dissolve in water to form a conductive solution, is silver nitrate. All of the silver halides are also ionic compounds, but only the fluoride has substantial solubility in water.
How is bond energy affected by being immersed in water?
It depends what kind of bond. A covalent bond is barely affected at all. The strength of an ionic bond is essentially reduced to nothing because ionic compounds dissolve readily in water, which breaks all the ionic bonds.
Why do solid crystals of ionic compounds conduct electricity when the crystals dissolve in water?
NaCl Add water. Na + Cl - Electrons have flowed and that is all electricity is, electron flow.
What is a universal solvent-?
Something that will dissolve anything. But there is nothing that will do that. Water is the most universal, but won't dissolve eveything.No options are given. But generally water is considered as the universal solvent because it can dissolve most polar and ionic compounds..
Is NF polar covalent?
it is ionic, soluble in polar solutes the reason it will not dissolve in water is dure to the nature of fluorides not wanting to let go of their cations
