    The ionic compound NaCl is very soluble is water because it is a salt of a strong acid (HCl) and strong base (NaOH), making it a strongly ionic substance. This means that it completely dissolves/dissociates into the ions Na + and Cl-. This is also the reason why it is considered a good conductor of electricity.
