When kcl dissolves in water when kcl dissolves in water the k+ ions are attracted to cl- ions on the kcl crystal the k+ ions are attracted to the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms of the water molecule the cl- ions are attracted to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule the k+ ions are attracted to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule the cl- ions are attracted to dissolved k+ ionswhen kcl dissolves in water when kcl dissolves in water the k+ ions are attracted to cl- ions on the kcl crystal the k+ ions are attracted to the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms of the water molecule the cl- ions are attracted to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule the k+ ions are attracted to the partial negative charge on the oxygen atom of the water molecule the cl- ions are attracted to dissolved k+ ions
