Which statement best describes the conductivity of weak electrolytes, such as weak acids and bases?
A) Weak electrolytes do not dissolve in water and can not conduct electricity.
B) Weak electrolytes dissolve and partially dissociate in water providing charged ions to conduct electricity.
C) Weak electrolytes dissolve and completely dissociate in water providing charged ions to conduct electricity.
D) Weak electrolytes dissolve and does not dissociate in water providing no charged ions to conduct electricity.

Answer 1

B) Weak electrolytes dissolve and partially dissociate in water providing charged ions to conduct electricity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The difference between weak and strong electrolytes is weak electrolytes dissolve and dissociate in water.
Conductivity is directly proportional to Degree of dissociation. That is, the more the degree of dissociation is, more it conducts electricity.
Weak electrolytes have low degree of dissociation and hence they conduct low. Therefore option B is correct.
