👉 A zwitterionic compound is a molecule that contains both ionic and non-ionic components. This means it has one type of ion (cation or anions) but also includes non-ionic components like water, which do not carry charges. Examples include sodium chloride (NaCl), potassium iodide (KI), and lithium fluoride (LiF). Zwitterionics are often used in organic synthesis to prepare compounds that can be used as catalysts or as building blocks for other materials.
