Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given compound should be identified as weak electrolyte, strong electrolyte or non electrolyte.
Concept introduction:
Electrolyte:
- Electrolyte is a chemical compound, which produce ions when dissolved in water and this solution conducts electricity.
- The strength of the electrolyte is increased by increasing the number of ions in solution.
Non electrolyte:
- The non electrolyte is a chemical compound that when dissolved in water produces a solution and this solution does not conduct electricity. This is because it does not dissociate to produce ions.
Weak electrolyte:
- The chemical compound which does not completely dissociate to produce the ions in its aqueous solution is called weak electrolyte.
Strong electrolyte:
- The chemical compound which completely dissociates to produce ions in aqueous solution is called strong electrolyte.
(b)
