An electrolyte is a substance that breaks up into ions when dissolved in water or any ionizing solvent. It is classified into three, gel electrolytes, solid ceramic electrolytes and dry polymer electrolytes.

What is the relationship between ionic compounds and electrolytes?
Ionic compounds form electrolytes in water solutions or when they are melted.
What are the 3 properties of electrovalent compounds?
1)high melting and boiling points 2)solubility 3)Electrolytes
Why ionic compound are called good electrolytes?
Even insoluble ionic compounds such as CaCO 3 are electrolytes because they can conduct a current in the molten (melted) state.
Are Covalent compounds considered Non-electrolytes?
Electrolytes are substances that consist of charged particles called ions. When electrolytes are dissolved in water (or other polar solvents) they ionize into positive (cation) and negative (anion) ions. In this experiment, you will explore what types of compounds can become electrolytes, what determines electrolyte strength, and how electrolytes are involved in the conduction of electricity.
What determines the strength of a solute as an electrolyte?
Solutes become electrolytes by ionizing. Ionic compounds therefore make good electrolytes; covalent compounds don't.
what type of compounds produce electrolytes and which produce non-electrolytes?
Ionic compounds produce electrolytes; covalent compounds not.
What compounds are electrolytes?
Inorganic compounds that can be completely ionised are considered to be strong electrolytes.
What is the relationship between ionic compounds and electrolytes?
Ionic compounds form electrolytes in water solutions or when they are melted.
What type of compounds typically form strong electrolytes?
Compounds which are not ionic are commonly not electrolytes. An ionic compound is a compound composed of a metal and a nonmetal, such as NaCl or AgI. Compounds with different compositions are not electrolytes.

1)high melting and boiling points 2)solubility 3)Electrolytes
Why ionic compound are called good electrolytes?
Even insoluble ionic compounds such as CaCO 3 are electrolytes because they can conduct a current in the molten (melted) state.
Which two compounds are electrolytes?
NaOH and HCl
Compounds that conduct electricity when in solution or in the molten state?
These compounds are called electrolytes.
Do salts when heated lost its electrolytes?
They remain electrolytes until they are not thermally decomposed in other compounds.
Are Covalent compounds considered Non-electrolytes?
Electrolytes are substances that consist of charged particles called ions. When electrolytes are dissolved in water (or other polar solvents) they ionize into positive (cation) and negative (anion) ions. In this experiment, you will explore what types of compounds can become electrolytes, what determines electrolyte strength, and how electrolytes are involved in the conduction of electricity.
What are the 3 classes of matter?
The 3 "Classes of Matter" are Elements, Compounds, and mixtures. Commonly mistaken for the 3 "Phases of Matter" which are solids, liquids, and gases.
What is the symbol for electrolytes?
There is no symbol for non-electrolytes as they are not any single substance. Most non-electrolytes are compounds rather than elements and so have formulas, not symbols.
