Question

Determine whether each statement describes a solution of a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or non-electrolyte.

Answer 1

Answer:

Please find the terms with their correct description in the explanation section.

Explanation:

An electrolyte is a substance that dissociates or ionizes into cations (positive charged ions) and anions (negative charged ions) in an aqueous solution. An electrolyte can either be strong or weak depending on how well it ionizes and its level of conductivity. However, a non-electrolyte neither ionizes in a solution nor conducts electricity.

Based on this;

1. Weak electrolyte: Has a medium level of conductivity i.e. partially conducts electricity

2. Strong electrolyte: Contains a complete solute

3. Non-electrolyte: Has little or no conductivity i.e. cannot conduct electricity because it doesn't dissociate into ions.

4. Strong electrolyte: Has the highest conductivity i.e. conducts electricity very well.

5. Strong electrolyte: Contains a completely dissociated solute i.e. the solute of the electrolyte separates into anions and cations completely.

6. Weak electrolyte: Contains a partially dissociated solute i.e. the ions of the solute do not ionize completely in the solution.
