Solution

The correct option is A Dissociation
Dissociation is a general process in which molecules (or ionic compounds such as salts, or complexes) separate or split into smaller particles such as atoms, ions or radicals, usually in a reversible manner.
Hence, $N a C l (a q .) ⇄ {N a}^{+} (a q .) + {C l}^{-} (a q .)$ is a dissociation reaction.
