Why is water able to easily dissolve ionic compounds?
A. The bonds between water molecules are easily broken by the strong ions of ionic compounds.
B. The opposite charges of ionic compounds repel each others, so water molecules can separate the ions.
C. The electron transfer in ionic compounds results in ions that are attracted to water's poles.
D. The poles of water molecules share electrons with the ions in ionic compounds.

Respuesta :

The answer should be A

This is because Ionic compounds easily soluble in any liquid that is capable of breaking the ionic bond in them. Water breaks the ionic bond by hydrogen bonding, as, water itself has a more ionic bond and polar in nature. ... Hence, can not dissolve them, and they all have covalent bonds and which are non-polar in nature.
