In ionic equilibrium, unless otherwise mentioned, we always deal with only dilute solutions where the solvent is water - True or false?
True
In this chapter, there are some basic assumptions. Ionic equilibrium deals with very dilute solutions of electrolytes. The solvent is water. Always. This is true unless otherwise mentioned. In most cases, the temperature is 298 K. You will not encounter gases or pressure terms. Most of the concepts are extended from Chemical equilibrium. Almost every concept "assumes” something. It is very important to keep in mind what those assumptions are.
For instance, strong electrolytes dissociate completely in water (like HCl, H2SO4, NaOHetc) . Weak electrolytes dissociate to very small extents - usually less than 5%. If you ever encounter degree of dissociation greater than 5% in problems from "good” sources, you can assume 'your' solution is wrong. For objective questions, it may be extended to 10% (which is actually too high).
