Chapter 8 Solutions
General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 2
In water,
 strong electrolytes produce ions and conduct an
electric current
 weak electrolytes produce a few ions
 nonelectrolytes do not produce ions
Solutes and Ionic Charge
General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. 3
Strong electrolytes
 dissociate in water, producing positive and negative
ions
 dissolved in water will conduct an electric current
 in equations show the formation of ions in aqueous
(aq) solutions
H2O 100% ions
NaCl(s) Na+(aq) + Cl(aq)
H2O
CaBr2(s) Ca2+(aq) + 2Br(aq)
