Dissociation
-Ionic compounds are made up of 2 parts:
→Cation: positively charged particle
→Anion: negatively charged particle
-When ionic compounds are dissolved in water the cation & anion separate from eachother
-This process is called dissociation
-When writing dissociation equations, the atoms & charges must balance.
The dissociation of Sodium Chloride is:
NaCl(s) → Na+(aq) = Cl-(aq)
*have to write charges*
