Electrolytes, Ions and Solubility

• Some molecular compounds like acetic acid ionize partially (dissociate) in water

HC2H3O2 (l) + H2O(l) H3O+(aq)+ 0.1000M C2H3O2 -(aq)

0.9987M 0.0013M

• Sugars like sucrose are non-ionic, molecular compounds that dissolve but produce no ions.

C12H22O11 (S) + H2O(l) ----> C12H22O11 (aq)
