  • Electrolyte
    A compound that enables electrical current to flow in solution by forming ions when dissolved or melted.
  • Conductivity
    A physical property describing how efficiently electrical current passes through a material due to mobile charged particles.
  • Strong Electrolyte
    A solute that fully separates into ions in water, resulting in high electrical conductivity.
  • Weak Electrolyte
    A solute that only partly forms ions in solution, leading to limited electrical conductivity.
  • Nonelectrolyte
    A substance that remains as molecules in solution and does not allow electrical current to flow.
  • Dissociation
    The process where a compound splits into ions when dissolved, affecting its ability to conduct electricity.
  • Solubility Rules
    Guidelines used to predict whether a compound will dissolve and form ions in water.
  • Ionic Compound
    A substance composed of positive and negative ions held together by electrostatic forces, often forming electrolytes.
  • Strong Acid
    A substance that completely forms hydrogen ions in water, making the solution highly conductive.
  • Strong Base
    A substance that fully produces hydroxide ions in solution, resulting in efficient electrical conduction.
  • Weak Acid
    A substance that only partially forms hydrogen ions in water, so most molecules remain intact.
  • Weak Base
    A substance that only slightly forms hydroxide ions in solution, resulting in mostly undissociated molecules.
  • Aqueous Solution
    A mixture where water surrounds dissolved particles, often ions, enabling electrical conduction if ions are present.
  • Molecular Compound
    A substance made of covalently bonded atoms that typically does not form ions in water.
  • Alcohol
    A covalent compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and an -OH group, usually not forming ions in solution.
