Answer #1

An electrolyte is a substance that produces an electrically conducting solution when dissolved in a polar solvent, such as water. The dissolved electrolyte separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly through the solvent.

A nonelectrolyte does not dissociate at all in solution and therefore does not produce any ions. Nonelectrolytes are typically polar covalent substances that do dissolve in water as molecules instead of ions.

Strong Electrolytes : H2SO4, KOH,KCl

weak electrolytes : HF, CH3CH2CH2NH2

Non electrolytes : C12H22O11, C2H5OH

The police often use a device called a Breathalyzer to test drivers suspected of being drunk. In one type of device, the breath of a driver suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol is bubbled through an orange solution containing potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The alcohol in the driver's breath reacts with the dichromate ion to produce acetic acid (HC2H3O2), which is colorless, and green chromium(III) sulfate [Cr2(SO4)3]. The degree of color change from orange to...
