Water has a tendency to breaks compounds into ions(mostly ionic compounds, as it's been told to me) Then why doesn't a precipitate gets ionised by water in a precipitation reaction? eg- BaCl2(aq) + Na2SO4(aq) ----> BaSO4(s) + NaCl(aq) Here, BaSO4 can also be broken into ions(Ba2+ and SO42-), so why it doesn't get ionised by water? ( I am a 10th grader, I'll be grateful if you would use easy language for the answer)

Answer:
Precipitation refers to a chemical reaction that occurs in aqueous solution when two ions bond together to form an insoluble salt, which is known as the precipitate.
A precipitation reaction can occur when two solutions containing different salts are mixed, and a cation/anion pair in the resulting combined solution forms an insoluble salt; this salt then precipitates out of solution.
The following is a common laboratory example of a precipitation reaction. Aqueous silver nitrate (AgNO3) is added to a solution containing potassium chloride (KCl), and the precipitation of a white solid, silver chloride (AgCl), is observed:
AgNO3 (aq) + KCl (aq) → AgCl (s) + KNO3(aq)
Note that the product silver chloride is the precipitate, and it is designated as a solid. This reaction can be also be written in terms of the individual dissociated ions in the combined solution. This is known as the complete ionic equation:
Ag+ (aq) + NO3−(aq) + K+ (aq) + Cl−(aq) → AgCl (s) + K+ (aq) + NO3−(aq)
A final way to represent a precipitation reaction is known as the net ionic equation. In this case, any spectator ions (those that do not contribute to the precipitation reaction) are left out of the formula completely. Without the spectator ions, the reaction equation simplifies to the following:
Ag+(aq) + Cl−(aq) → AgCl (s)
