Electrolytes

Subject: Chemistry

Book: General Chemistry

Electrolytes are substances that, when dissolved in water, produce ions that conduct electricity. Strong electrolytes (e.g., HCl, NaCl) dissociate completely, while weak electrolytes (e.g., acetic acid) dissociate partially. Electrolyte solutions are essential in battery operation, biological systems (nerve conduction), and industrial electrolysis. Maintaining proper electrolyte balance is important in physiology, as imbalances can affect muscle function and hydration.
