Electricity • What do you need to conduct electricity? Mobile, charged particles!!!!
Electrolyte= ions in solution • substance that dissolves in water to form solution that conducts electricity - Soluble salts (ionic compounds from table F) -Bases (metal ion + OH-) and (NH3 NH4++ OH-) - Acids (start with H except H2O H2O2 or end in COOH) • Nonelectrolyte • substance that dissolves in water to form solution that does not conduct electricity • - basically all covalent except acids and bases
Electrolyte vs. Nonelectrolyte Which solution conducts a current?
