Question

The degree of ionisation of acids and bases depends on the:

• A. degree of neutralization of compounds into their constituent ions
• B. degree of dissociation of compounds into their constituent ions
• C. degree of heating of compounds into their constituent ions
• D. none of above

Answer 1

The correct option is B degree of dissociation of compounds into their constituent ions

Ionization of a compound refers to a process in which a neutral molecule splits into charged ions when exposed in a solution. The degree of ionisation of acids and bases depends on the degree of dissociation of compounds into their constituent ions. Strong acids and bases have high degree of ionisation in comparison to weak acids and bases.
