When an ionic compound dissolves in water to form a solution, all of these processes occur. Ionic bonds between the ions in the compound break, hydrogen bonds between water molecules are disrupted as water molecules surround the ions, ion-dipole attractions between the ions and water molecules form, and entropy increases due to the mixing of the ionic compound and water molecules.
