Ionic compounds separates into particles (ions) in water because of their ionic bond.
For example sodium chloride is ionic compound and strong electrolyte and dissociates in water on hydrated sodium cations and chlorine anions:
NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).
Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions (cations and anions).
