Nitrogen(I) oxide N₂O H₂O(ℓ), N₂O(aq)

Sodium nitrite NaNO₂ H₂O(ℓ), Na⁺(aq), NO₂⁻(aq)

Glucose C₆H₁₂O₆ H₂O(ℓ), C₆H₁₂O₆(aq)

Nickel(II) iodide NiI₂ H₂O(ℓ), I⁻(aq), Ni²⁺(aq)

Glucose and nitrogen(I) oxide are covalent compounds. They do not dissociate in solution.
The compounds containing metals are ionic. They produce ions in solution.
ZnI₂ and NiI₂ produce twice as many iodide ions as metal ions.
