Multiple answers:You can select more than one option

A

Sugar C_66​H_{12}12​O_66​

B

Sodium hydroxide NaOH

C

Ammonia NH_33​

D

Ethanol C_22​H_55​OH

Answer 1

1) Electrolyte :- An electrolyte is a substance that produces an elecrically conducting solution when dissolved in polar solvent, such as water. The dissolved electrolytes separate into cations and anions.

2) NaOH (sodium hydroxide) is a strong electrolyte which dissolve in water to give Na+ cation and DH- anion.

3)NH3 (ammonia) is a weak electrolyte, when dissolve in water NH3 forms (ammonium) cation and OH (hydroxide) anoin.

Non- Electrotyle - Substance that dissolve in polar solvens but fails to give ions.

(ethanol) dissolve in water but dont give ions. so, this two are non- electrolyte.

* Non Electrolyte -

sugar, ethanol
