Answer:
a) LiClO4 - Strong electrolyte
b) HClO -Weak electrolyte
c) CH3CH2CH2OH - Non-electrolyte
d) HClO3 - Strong electrolyte
e) CuSO4 -strong electrolyte
f) C12H22O11-Non-electrolyte
Explanation:
- An electrolyte is a substance in an aqueous or molten form which is decomposed by passing an electric current through it. Electrolytes ionize to ions which are responsible for the conduction of electric charge.
- Non-electrolytes are substances that do not ionize into cations and anions and thus do not conduct. They include molecular compounds such as gases.
- Electrolytes may be weak or strong depending on the level of ionization.
- Weak electrolytes are those that undergo partial ionization while strong electrolytes completely ionize.
