ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF ELECTROLYTES AND NON ELECTROLYTES EXPERIMENT # 5 A Scientific Paper ABSTRACT: In this experiment we have test the

electrolyte capability of some compounds. We determine it using electrodes of conductivity tester that shall be connected using the solution of the compounds. Then we can determine if it is electrolyte or non-electrolyte whether its weak, strong or non-electrolyte. The compounds are H2O, distilled water, HCL, NaOH, NH4CL, C2H5OH, H2SO4, CoOH, Sucrose, NH4OH, CH3OOH. INTRODUCTION: If an electrical device falls into water in which you are standing, you could receive a severe or even fatal shock. Rain and tap water contain small amounts of dissolved ions that allow the solution to conduct electricity. A perfectly pure sample of water, containing only H2O. Molecules, conducts only a very minute electric current and poses no harm. Only about 2 per billion water molecules spontaneously separate into H+ ions and OH- ions and therefore do not produce enough charged particles to carry a current that is measurable in most school science laboratories. When ionic substances dissolve in water, ions separate from each other. The charged particles released conduct an electric current through the water. If the substance ionized almost completely in water, it is a good conductor of electricity and is classified as strong electrolyte. If a substance ionized only partially, it is a poor conductor of electricity and is classified as a weak electrolyte. Most of the solutes of both types of electrolytes are ionically bonded. Substances that dissolve in water without conduction bonds and do not dissociate into ions when they dissolve in water. We call these solutes molecular solutes.
