Question

Identify the correct match of the various solvents with the type of electrolyte.

• A. Table salt solution
• B. Acetic Acid
• C. Distilled Water

Answer 1

Strong electrolytes- Electrolytes that ionizes almost fully.

Table salt is the common name for NaCl. It ionises into $N{a}^{+}$ and $C{l}^{-}$ ions.

Weak Electrolytes – Electrolytes that ionise partially.

The chemical formula for the acetic acid is $C{H}_{3}COOH$, it ionises into $C{H}_{3}CO{O}^{-}$ and $H^{+}$ ions.

Non- Electrolytes – Substances that do not ionise at all.

Distilled water does not have any ions.
