Electrolyte substance is a substance that dissolves or breaks down into ions and then the
solution becomes an electrically conductor , the ions are electrically charged atoms . Electrolytes
can be water, acids, bases or other chemical compounds
An electrolyte solution is a solution that generally contains ions, atoms or molecules that have
lost or gained electrons, and is electrically conductive.
Non-electrolyte solutions are solutions that cannot conduct electric current . This is because the
non-electrolyte solution cannot produce ions (not ionizing).
A substance can conduct electricity because it has ions which moves freely in the solution. These
ions will be the conductor. The more ions produced the better the solution conducts electricity
There are nonelectrolyte, weak electrolyte, and strong electrolytes in water solvent. Explain the
difference of them! Give the sample of them as much as you can! (Do these question by completing the
following table)
the degree of ionization (α) is the quotient of the total number of electrolyte molecules ionized
into ions. The number of concentrations that react or become ions will depend on the degree of
ionization (α) which is formulated as follows: α = Number of moles that are ionized / number of
moles at first.
Sign the following compounds by giving √ if it can conduct electric and – if it can not conduct electric!
Ionic compounds - √ √
Polar covalent - - √
compounds
strong electrolyte
(acid,bases,salt)
because there are has
Characteristics
-Strong or good electric current conductor -Perfectly ionized
-The constant or degree of ionization (a) a = 1
-When tested, a strong electrolyte solution has a bright light and a lot of gas bubbles appear
weak electrolyte
(acid,bases)
it because has characteristics
-Poor or weak electrical conductor -Partially ionized
-Ionization constant or degree (a) 0 <a <1
-When tested, a weak electrolyte solution has a weak flame and a few gas bubbles appear.
-If tested, the Non -Electrolyte Solution, does not ignite and does not appear gas bubbles
