← ScienceWhich consequence results when ionic bonds hydrolyze in calcium chloride?
A)Free ions increase conductivity✓
B)Covalent networks undergo cross-linking
C)Van der Waals forces strengthen
D)Metallic lattice becomes crystalline
💡 Explanation
Hydrolysis separates calcium chloride into individual calcium and chloride ions via ionic dissociation; because this separation increases the number of charge carriers, therefore electrical conductivity rises, rather than cross-linking or strengthening non-ionic intermolecular forces.
