Which of the following would act as a nonelectrolyte when dissolved in water? Select all that apply. a. NH4NO3 b. NaCl c. CH3OH d. K2CrO4 e. C6H12O6 Solution The answer is: (c) and (e) CH3OH and C6H12O6 are molecular compounds and do not ionize in water. Thus they are nonelectrolytes. All the others are soluble ionic compounds that will ionize in water and are thus electrolytes: NH4NO3 => NH4+ + NO3- NaCl => Na+ + Cl- K2CrO4 => 2 K+ + CrO42-.
