Chapter 9, Problem 79E
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The terms, strong electrolyte and weak electrolyte are to be distinguished precisely.

Concept introduction:

Solutions of substances in which the ions are the conducting species are called electrolytes. The ionization depends on the nature of the substance. Some substances are more ionized in solution and conduct more electricity. Other substances are ionized to a lesser extent and conduct less electricity. The ability of a solution to conduct electricity depends on the number of ions present in the solution.

Answer to Problem 79E

Strong electrolytes produce more number of ions in the solution and are good conductors of electricity. Weak electrolytes produce less number of ions in the solution and are bad conductors of electricity.

Explanation of Solution

Substances whose solutions are very good conductor of electricity are termed as strong electrolytes. They furnish more number of ions. Substances whose solutions are poor conductors of electricity are termed as weak electrolytes. They produce less number of ions.

Conclusion

Strong electrolytes produce more number of ions in the solution and are good conductors of electricity. Weak electrolytes produce less number of ions in the solution and are bad conductors of electricity.

Answer to Problem 79E

Electrolytes are able to conduct electricity. Nonelectrolytes are unable to conduct electricity.

Explanation of Solution

The substances whose solutions can conduct electricity are termed as electrolytes. The conduction of electricity is due to the presence of ions in the solution. Molecular solids cannot dissociate. Therefore, they cannot furnish ions and do not conduct electricity. Therefore, the substances whose solutions cannot conduct electricity are termed as nonelectrolytes.

Conclusion

Electrolytes are able to conduct electricity. Nonelectrolytes are unable to conduct electricity.

Interpretation Introduction

Answer to Problem 79E

In ion combination reactions, exchange of cations and anions between reactants takes place to form products. In precipitation reaction, one of the products formed is an insoluble compound. In molecular formation reactions, the exchange of cations and anions between reactants takes place to form a molecular product which does not ionize.

Explanation of Solution

Ion combination reactions are those in which the cation of one reactant reacts with the anion of another reactant to form product. The cations and anions are exchanged in the products. If the product formed is an insoluble compound, the reaction is termed as precipitation reaction. Molecular formation reactions are those ion combination reactions in which one of the product formed is a molecular compound and does not undergo ionization.

Conclusion

In ion combination reactions, exchange of cations and anions between reactants takes place to form products. In precipitation reaction, one of the products formed is an insoluble compound. In molecular formation reactions, the exchange of cations and anions between reactants takes place to form a molecular product which does not ionize.
