I will be ever so grateful to any kind, knowledgeable stranger that may be able to answer any of the (important!) questions listed below:
-> What must happen in an ionic compound for it to dissolve in water? And what type of INTRAPARTICLE FORCES must exist between ions in an ionic compound?
-> What types of INTERmolecular forces between water molecules at room temp.? And what types of intermolecular forces exist between water molecules IN a glass of water at room temp.?
-> What must happen with the water molecules so that they can DISSOLVE compounds?
-> What type of INTERPARTICLE forces exist between ions and water molecules in a solution?
Thank you so very much in advance.
