Become converted into ions
(ionization) the condition of being dissociated into ions (as by heat or radiation or chemical reaction or electrical discharge); "the ionization of a gas"
(ionization) the process of ionizing; the formation of ions by separating atoms or molecules or radicals or by adding or subtracting electrons from atoms by strong electric fields in a gas
Ionization is the physical process of converting an atom or molecule into an ion by adding or removing charged particles such as electrons or other ions. This is often confused with dissociation (chemistry).
To dissociate atoms or molecules into electrically charged species; to be thus dissociated
(Ionized) is the term for an atom which has lost one or more electrons causing it to become positively charged.
(ionized) State of an atom that has had at least one of its electrons removed.
(ionizes) When a substance breaks into its ionic components.
(ionization) Removal of electrons from an atom, for example, by means of radiation, so that the atom becomes charged.
