This is a condition in which people loose their memory, awareness, or identity. A person might become dissociated as a defense mechanism. It is something that the brain does to protect itself from a traumatic event. Events that might cause this are a parent or child passing away, being beaten, or other traumatic events.

What the difference between dissociation and solvation?

Dissociation refers to the breaking apart of a compound into ions in a solvent, while solvation involves the surrounding of solute particles by solvent molecules. Dissociation is a specific process that occurs for ionic compounds, whereas solvation can occur for both ionic and molecular compounds.


What are the indicators that can be used to determine dissociation constant?

If you mean chemical indicators as used for indicating pH and reaction end-points, the answer is none, unless you are only looking for a very rough estimate at dissociation constant. The error involved in using an indicator would be very large. If you used an indicator, choice would depend on the compound, what its dissociation constant was and what it dissociated to.
