← ScienceWhich consequence results when dissolving sodium chloride in water?
A)Increased electrical conductivity of solution.✓
B)Decreased thermal energy of the mixture.
C)Formation of covalent molecular compounds.
D)Reduced electrostatic attraction between ions.
💡 Explanation
Dissolving NaCl leads to increased conductivity because the process of ionization releases Na+ and Cl- ions into the solution, enabling charge transport via ionic conduction; therefore, conductivity increases, rather than options forming covalent compounds or affecting the reverse.
