This is the dissociation constant.
The solvent contain the ions of the solute.
Electrolytic solutions contain ions that can conduct electricity, while non-electrolytic solutions do not have ions that conduct electricity. In electrolytic solutions, the electrolytes dissociate into positive and negative ions when dissolved in water, allowing for the flow of electrical current. Non-electrolytic solutions do not dissociate into ions and therefore do not conduct electricity.
An electrolytic capacitor uses an electrolyte (ions in a solution) to store charges.
I don't believe it is the citric acid which makes Gatorade an electrolytic solution. I think its the salt which makes Gatorade an electrolytic solution because when salt is dissolved in a liquid, the already charged NA1+ and Cl1- ions are spread throughout the liquid, allowing it to conduct electric current, thus allowing it to be an electrolytic solution. I'm not really too sure though, because NaCl overall will have no charge so I'm a bit confused by this as well. Anyways all I'm sure of is that salt+water=water conducts electric current. -Random 8th Grader
a chemical decomposition reaction produced by passing an electric current through a solution containing ions is known as electrolytic decomposition reaction
Chlorine gas. Cl2
The difference between electrolytic refining and electrolytic reduction is as follows: a. In electrolytic reduction graphite electrodes are used which are of same size. in electrolytic refining the anode is made of the impure metal which is to be purified and the cathode is made from that pure metal. initially the cathode is thick and the anode is very thin. b. the electrolyte used in electrolytic refining is the metal sulphate with acid (acid id added to increase the conductivity) which is aqueous in nature. whereas in electrolytic reduction molten chloride form of the solution is used. c. The impure metal at the anode displaces the metal from the aqueous solution and the these ions go to the cathode and attach to the cathode as they are now pure. basically the impure metal at the anode directly doesn't go to the cathode, its a indirect process. as the reaction goes on, the size of the anode reduces and finally disappears and the cathode becomes thick as all the impure metal is converted into pure metal. this happens in electrolytic refining. whereas in electrolytic reduction the metal from the molten solution deposits on the cathode and chlorine gas is evolved at the anode. general differences: a. in electrolytic reduction no anode mud is formed and in electrolytic refining anode mud is formed from the impurities oh the impure metal. b. electrolytic reduction is done to extract metals of high reactivity from their ores. electrlolytic refining is done to purify (refine) metals from their impure form.
The electrode where reduction occurs.
In an electrolytic solution, the carriers of current are ions. These can be positively charged ions (cations) moving towards the negative electrode (cathode) or negatively charged ions (anions) moving towards the positive electrode (anode) to maintain charge balance during electrolysis.
Reduction occurs at the cathode in an electrolytic cell. This is where cations in the electrolyte solution gain electrons and get reduced, leading to the deposition of a substance onto the cathode.
A flow of charge can be caused by ions moving in an electrolyte solution, such as in batteries or electrical conductors like saltwater or molten salts. In these systems, the movement of ions carries electrical charge through the material, enabling the flow of electricity.
