Expert Solution

Step 1

Electrolytes are those Substances which Dissolve easily in water and conduct electricity fastly. They show approximately 100% Ionisation. Like - NaCl, NaOH, HCl, etc.

Weak Electrolytes are those Substances which are partially soluble in water, and can not conduct electricity easily, they can partially conduct electricity. Can not show 100% Ionisation. Like - CH₃COOH, NH₄OH, NH₃ etc.

While non Electrolytes are those Substances which can not be Dissolved in water as well as can not conduct electricity through its Solution. Like - sugar, glucose, Alcohol etc.
