Are electrolytes an acid or a base?
Electrolytes can be a combination of both acids and bases. Electrolytes are substances that ionize in water to produce ions that conduct electricity. This can include acids like hydrochloric acid and bases like sodium hydroxide that dissociate into ions in solution.
What 3 classes of compounds are electrolytes?
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.
Does semen have electrolytes?
Electrolytes are the solutions of salts, acids and bases and semen has numerous electrolytes. They include both acids and salts.
What is the relationship if any between strong electrolyte and strong acid or base?
A strong electrolyte is an ionic compound which is completely dissociated in dilute solution. It may be an acid, a base or neither. Strong acids are strong electrolytes which produce hydrogen ions in water, and strong bases are strong electrolytes which produce hydroxide ions in water.
What four properties that acids and bases have in common?
Both acids and bases are electrolytes, meaning they can conduct electricity in solution. They can react with each other to form water and a salt. Acids and bases can change the color of certain indicators to show their pH levels. Acids and bases can neutralize each other when mixed in the right proportions.
Can every strong electrolyte be considered a strong acid?
No, not all strong electrolytes are strong acids. Strong electrolytes include strong acids, strong bases, and soluble salts. Strong acids are a subset of strong electrolytes that fully dissociate into ions when dissolved in water, leading to a high concentration of ions in solution.
What are weak electrolytes in water?
weak acids/bases.

Does semen have electrolytes?
Electrolytes are the solutions of salts, acids and bases and semen has numerous electrolytes. They include both acids and salts.
Are acids bases and salts electrolytes?
Always. So long as you get the ratio correct, they always will.
What do you think about acids and bases?
I think acids donate electrons and bases accept electrons. Both acid and bases can be weak or strong, that is good or poor electrolytes. What else is there to think?
What has the author R P Bell written?
R. P. Bell has written: 'The modern theory of electrolytes' 'Acids and bases' -- subject(s): Acids, Bases (Chemistry)

Are Arrhenius bases an electrolyte?
All acids and bases are electrolytes. Some are more powerful than others, depending on the extent of ionization and dissociation of the solution.
Are strong acids poor electrolytes?
All acids and bases are electrolytes. However, the strong acids or bases are strong electrolytes, and the weak acids or bases are weak electrolytes. Electrolytes are substances, that when dissolved in water, produce ions capable of conducting electricity. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong base, and strong electrolyte. Hydrogen bromide is a strong acid, and also a strong electrolyte. Ionic compounds generally form good electrolytes because they completely ionize when dissolved in water, and can then conduct electricity. Gatorade can be marketed as an "electrolyte containing beverage" because when the ionic salt, NaCl (table salt) or KCl, is added to water, it ionizes into Na+ and Cl-, which then are able to conduct electricity. Pure water is a very weak base, and bad conductor of electricity; there aren't enough free ions to carry a charge. We need electrolytes for conduction of nerve impulses, which are electrical. The reason why we even consume sports drinks is because we lose ionic salts in our sweat. Loss of too much salt through perspiration, and intake of too much pure water, diminishes our ability to conduct nerve impulses - which results in cramping, fatigue, and in extreme cases, death. In short, sports drinks are, without sugar and flavoring, just water with small amounts of different salts thrown in - and acids and bases are electrolytes.
