Strong Electrolytes
Substances that dissociate
completely (100%) when
dissolved in water.
An electrolyteis a substance which,
when dissolved in water, results in a
solution that can conduct electricity.
A nonelectrolyteis a
substance which when
dissolved, results in a
solution that does not
conduct electricity.

The concentration of the solutions that contain
electrolytes is referred to as the
analytical concentration or
analytical molarity ( C
SOLUTE )
AND
equilibrium concentration or
equilibrium molarity [ A ]
The concentration of aqueous solutions of
electrolytes is the analytical concentration ( C
SOLUTE)
The aqueous solution contains 1.025 mole NaCl in 1.000 L solution .
The solution is labeled as 1.025 M NaCl
The solution was prepared by
dissolving 59.901 g NaCl in
1.000 L of solution.
At equilibrium, the solution contains
