Interpretation:
The given compounds are to be identified as nonelectrolyte, weak electrolyte, or strong electrolyte.
Concept Introduction:
An electrolyte is a substance that dissociates to produce ions, when dissolved in water. Soluble ionic compounds, acids, and bases are electrolytes.
Nonelectrolytes are substances which do not dissociate to produce ions. If a molecular compound is neither an acid nor a weak base, then it is a nonelectrolyte.
There are two types of electrolytes, strong and weak.
Strong electrolytes completely dissociate into their constituent ions upon dissolution, hence, ionic compounds, strong acidsand strong bases are strong electrolytes.
Weak electrolytes do not dissociate completely on dissolution. Therefore, weak acids and weak bases are weak electrolytes.
