← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when ionic compounds dissolve in water?
A)Increased electrical conductivity results✓
B)Decreased solution boiling point happens
C)Covalent bond strength proportionally increases
D)Gas solubility consistently remains unchanged
💡 Explanation
Dissolving ionic compounds frees ions, thus *ionic dissociation* happens leading to greater charge carrier availability in solution and electrical conductivity. This happens because the ions separate, therefore conductivity increases rather than changes in other bulk properties.
