Answer:
The process is known as hydration.
Explanation:
- Ionic compounds are formed by the transfer of electrons between cations and anions. The bond present in ionic compounds is Ionic bond. Ionic compounds are generally solid in nature and the constituents ions are tightly bound with each other.
- When an ionic compound is dissolved in water, the water molecules split the ionic bond between the cations and anions. Consequently, ions get separated and they can move freely in aqueous state. This process is called as hydration.
