Neither, HClO3 is chloric acid. It is a strong acid. An electrolyte constitutes a strong base and a strong acid reacting in a neutralization equation. Like so...

NaOH + HCl >>> NaCl + H2O

A neutralization reaction prodces a salt (electrolyte) and water from an acid and a base coming together.

However, a salt can be acidic, basic, or neutral

-strong base with a strong acid=neutral

-strong base with a weak acid= basic

-weak base with a strong acid= acidic

-weak base with a weak acid = neutral

stronger dominates the weaker

think of it like this. two people fight, if I pit a strong guy and a puny weakling the strong guy should win. However, if I pit a weakling with a weakling; the fight theoretically is never going to get anywhere. They will NEUTRALIZE each other. Same with a strong to strong.

Other examples of electrolytes would be NaCN, KCl, NH4Br, etc.

KClO is the chemical formula of potassium hypochlorite.
The dissociation is: KClO---------------→K+ + (ClO)-
Hypochlorites are strong oxidizers and can be used for bleaching.
