Salts and acids are examples of inorganic compounds called Electrolytes which dissociate in water to release ions.

<h2>Further Explanation: </h2><h3>A compound  </h3>
  • A compound is a substances that contains two or more different atoms that are bonded together.
  • When the atoms are similar the substance is known as a molecule, therefore not all molecules are compounds.
<h3>Electrolytes</h3>
  • Electrolytes are substances that are either in molten or aqueous form that discharged by passing electric current through them. They dissociate into ions while in molten or solution form.
  • These compounds are made of mobile ions which are responsible for the conduction of electricity.
  • Examples includes, soluble salts, ionic compounds, acids, and bases etc.
<h3>Salt </h3>
  • A salt is a substance that is formed when an acid reacts with a base or when the hydrogen part of acid is replaced by metal ion or an ammonium ion.
<h3>Ionic compounds </h3>
  • Ionic compounds are compounds that contain ions. They are as a result of ionic bonding between a metal atom and a non-metal atom.
  • During ionic bonding formation the metallic atom looses electrons while the non-metallic atom gains electrons.
  • Ionic compounds contains both negatively charged ion(anion) and positively charged ion (cation).
  • Examples of ionic compounds, NaCl, LiF, KCl, Cs2S, KBr, PbS etc.
  • Most ionic compounds may act as electrolytes.

Keywords: Compound, electrolytes, salts, ionic compounds, soluble acids, bases.

Answer:

Salts and acids are examples of inorganic compounds called <u><em>electrolytes</em></u>.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are the substances which dissociates into ions when dissolved in water and due to this they are able to conduct electric current through them.  These compounds in solid form does not conduct electricity due to the absence of free ions.

For example: Sodium chloride , sulfuric acid etc.

NaCl(aq)\righarrow = Na^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow SO_4^{2-}(aq)+2H^+(aq)

Water difference between glacier and geyser
Gekata [30.6K]
Glaciers are found in areas where the net accumulation of snow exceeds the melt, therefore they are usually found in areas of high elevation, cold temperatures, and high precipitation.

Geysers are found in areas of shallow crust with high heat flow, such as hot spots.

Oil doesn't mix with water because
puteri [66]
<span>Oil and water don't mix because oil is made up of non-polar molecules while water molecules are polar in nature. Because water molecules are electrically charged, they get attracted to otherwater molecules and exclude the oil molecules. (this is from wiki)</span>
