Three different electrolytic cells A, B and C are connected in separate circuits. Electrolytic cell A contains sodium chloride solution. When the circuit is completed bulb in the circuit glows brightly. Electrolytic cell B contains acetic acid solution and in this case the bulb in the circuit glows dimly. The electrolytic cell C contains sugar solution and the bulb does not glow. Give a reason for each of these observations.

Step 1 Definition
Electrolytic cell: an electrolytic cell is an electrochemical cell whose voltage is applied between two electrodes of an external source.
Step 2 Observation of each
Cell A: Strong electrolyte Bulb glows brightly.
Cell B: Weak electrolyte (Acetic acid) Bulb glows dimly.
Cell C: Non-electrolyte (Sugar solution) Bulb doesn't glow.
