Solution
The correct options are AHCl→H++Cl− DHBr→H++Br− In dissociation separation of ions take place which are already present as ions in the solid state. For example in the crystal structure of NaCl, NaCl is present as Na and Cl.
In ionization, splitting of a neutral molecule into ions which are charged happen.
HCl and HBr are neutral μ, there is no charge separation. But in solution they get ionised.
