Which substance will most likely ionize when it is dissolved in water?

Ionization occurs when neutral molecules form ions in water. HBr is a molecular acid and reacts with water to form H₃O⁺ and Br⁻ ions. CaBr₂, MgCl₂, and KCl are ionic compounds that separate into their already-existing ions when dissolved, a process called dissociation.
