A conductor is a material that allows the flow of electric current due to the presence of free-moving charged particles, typically electrons, such as in metals. In contrast, an electrolyte is a substance that, when dissolved in a solvent (usually water), dissociates into ions, enabling the conduction of electricity through ionic movement rather than electron flow. While both conduct electricity, conductors do so through electron movement, while electrolytes rely on the mobility of ions in solution.

What is the term of a conductor in a form of a solution?

A conductor in a solution is referred to as an electrolyte. Electrolytes are substances that dissociate into ions when dissolved in a solvent, allowing them to conduct electricity. Examples include salts, acids, and bases.

Is C3H8 a non-electrolyte?

C3H8 is a non-electrolyte. This is considered as an organic compound that does not readily ionize when dissolved or melted. It is also a poor conductor of electricity.


Is CH2OHCH2OH a strong electrolyte?

No, CH2OHCH2OH is not a strong electrolyte because it is a covalent compound. Strong electrolytes dissociate completely into ions when dissolved in solution, while covalent compounds do not dissociate into ions.
