Is there a machine made to ionize vegetable oil?

Mass spectrometers, which initially ionize the compounds they analyze, are used to determine the structure and composition of elements in a compound. So, if vegetable oil is to be analyzed, the mass spectrometer would ionize it first.

How do strong and weak bases dissociate or ionize?

Strong bases dissociate or ionize completely. Weak bases dissociate or ionize only partially. The degree to which they ionize/dissociate is given by the Kb for each weak base.


Will the drug be ionized if it's pKa lower than the physiological pH and why?

An acid in a base solution will ionize; a base in an acid will ionize. Like solutions do not ionize. When pKa is less than pH, around 99 percent to 100 percent of the drug will ionize.


How can a compound joined by a covalent bond from ions when it dissolves in water?

Covalent compounds have only a slight tendency to ionize, but remember, water itself does ionize into H+ and OH- (with an ionization constant of 10-14). Any molecule will have some tendency, however slight, to come apart under the stress of normal thermal vibration.
