An electrolyte is any substance containing free ions that make the substance electrically conductive. So the substance will have a negative charge or a positive charge that can be indicated by a + sign or a - sign in front of it's chemical formula.

Would you see the same effect in elodea cells if you used a glucose solution instead of a water solution?
you would not see the same effect because there is sugar in one and not in the other
What would you see when acidified silver nitrate solution is added to a solution of Low sodium salt?
White precipitate.
Is a sandwich solution or a mixture?
A sandwich is a mixture not a solution as you can easily see the parts. They are not evenly distributed though out as would be sugar in water.
What properties could you use to test if a substance is ionic?
You put two or more materials together. If you notice changes such as increasing temperature, or appearance of a precipitate, or smoke, or changes in color, this means that those materials react together and make a chemical reaction. You do that either by normal mixing or by heat...etc and wait for a specific time to see the changes. In short: tests occur under strict control and adjustment of laboratory conditions.

Describe the how would you prepare a solution of magnesium chloride solution starting with dilute hydrochloric acid include in your answer what would you see and how would you make sure that all the?
The reaction is:Mg + 2 HCl = MgCl2 + H2(g)You will see a release of hydrogen if a lighted match is placed near the test tube - you hear a click.
Why were a reference solution and a blank used in each test?
A reference solution was used in order to see what reaction happens between a test reagent and a solution with a high value of the ions being tested. A blank was used to show that there is no reaction when the ion being tested for is not present in the solution.
Is solution x safe to drink with phenolphthalein?
what would happen if scientists were testing to see if a substance was safe to drink and used phenolphthalein as an indicator and what would happen if the test was done using methyl orange
Why do you need to test solutions with Blue litmus paper and red litmus paper?
So you can tell if the solution is an acid or a base
Would you see the same effect in elodea cells if you used a glucose solution instead of a water solution?
you would not see the same effect because there is sugar in one and not in the other
Is potassium an electrolyte?
Yes Pottasium is an Electrolyte, you see a electrolyte is a mineral that that disolves in water, and carries an electric current.In your body, potassium, sodium and chloride are the electrolyte minerals. Since the body is made mostly of water, these electrolytes can be found everywhere in your body.
How can you test a solution to see if it is saturated?
When you add items that can be dissolved, and it doesn't dissolve in the liquid, it means that it is saturated.
How would you test a substance to see if it was metal?
See if it can carry a charge.
What would you see when lead nitrate solution is mixed with with sodium chloride solution?
You would see the formation of a precipitate which would be lead chloride.Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaCl(aq) --> 2NaNO3(aq) + PbCl2(s)
