Why do all ionic compounds dissolve in water?
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.
Do ionic bonds dissolve in water?
This is a wrong question. Ionic bonding is a term referring to the attractive forces between the charged ions of an ionic compound. If you meant to ask " Do ionic compounds dissolve in water? ", the answer is yes. Most of them do. This is because the polar water molecules are easily separate the ions in the ionic solid. However, for unknown reasons, some ionic compounds do not dissolve in water. An example is Silver Chloride.

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.
What is an ionic compound which will not dissolve in water?
Barium sulfate is a common example. Any salt of lead except lead nitrate is insoluble in water (however lead halides are soluble in hot water). Other examples include many of the salts of transition metals which are seperated by cation analysis.

Is water an ionic compound that can dissolve only ions?
No. Water is a largely covalent compound that spontaneously ionizes only to give concentrations of 10-7 molar for each of hydrogen and hydroxide ions. However water also has a high dielectric constant and for that reason can dissolve many ionic compounds. Water can also dissolve sufficiently polar organic compounds, such as sugar, with little or no trace of ionic character.
Will a compound dissolve in water?
For example, ionic compounds: inorganic acids, salts, bases; many organic compounds, etc.

Does water dissolve most salts?
Water dissolve many ionic salts because water has a polar molecule.

Are ionic compounds more likely to dissolve in water than covalent compounds?
Yes, ionic compounds are more likely to dissolve in water than covalent compounds because they can dissociate into ions when placed in water due to their charged nature. This makes them readily interact with water molecules through ion-dipole interactions, facilitating their dissolution. Covalent compounds generally do not dissociate into ions in water and may not have the same level of interaction with water molecules, making them less likely to dissolve.
Is an ionic compound soluble in water?
Ionic compounds are often soluble in water due to the ability of water molecules to surround and disperse the individual ions. However, solubility can vary depending on the specific ionic compound and its interaction with water molecules.
What is the nature of the substances dissolved in water?
Substances that dissolve in water are polar molecules, like water. Also, many ionic compounds can also dissolve in water as well, such as common table salt, NaCl.
