Q
dissociation:
A
the process by which a compound breaks apart into ions when dissolved in a solvent like water
6
Q
electrolyte:
A
a substance that produces ions when dissolved in a solution, making it capable of conducting electricity
7
Q
equilibrium:
A
a state where the rate of forward reaction equals the rate of the reverse reaction, resulting in no net change in the concentrations of reactants and product
