Understanding Dissociation and Ionization

What is the primary difference between dissociation and ionization?

• Dissociation involves ionic compounds, while ionization involves covalent compounds.

• Dissociation involves covalent compounds, while ionization involves ionic compounds.

• Both dissociation and ionization involve only covalent compounds.

• Both dissociation and ionization involve only ionic compounds.
