Ionic solutes are considered strong electrolytes. What does this mean for the conductivity of the solution?

A) Strong electrolytes dissolve and completely dissociate in water providing charged ions to conduct electricity.
B) Strong electrolytes dissolve and do not dissociate in water providing no charged ions to conduct electricity.
C) Being a strong electrolyte refers the type of bonding and has no bearing on conducting electricity.
D) Strong electrolytes do not dissolve in water and can not conduct

Answer:

A) Strong electrolytes dissolve and completely dissociate in water providing charged ions to conduct electricity.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Electrolytes are substances that are either in molten or aqueous form which are decomposed by passing an electric current through them.
  • Ionic solutes have the capacity to dissociates completely into charged ions in solution and thus acquire the capacity to conduct electricity. Therefore ionic solutes are strong electrolytes.
  • Ionic compound contain electrically charged ions that conduct electricity in molten state or aqueous state,
