Question

what is the difference between electrolyte and non electrolyte

Answer 1

In electrolyte, the solution breaks into free +ve and -ve ions but in a non-electrolyte, the solution doesn't provide ions, it means that the solution doesn't contain ions. Ex. of non electrolyte- distilled water, alcohol, carbon disulphide, carbon tetrachloride etc.

Answer 2

Electrolytes:

Electrolytes ionize almost completely in solution and therefore, their solutions conduct electricity.

Nonelectrolytes:

nonelectrolyte do not ionize in the solution and therefore their solutions do not conduct electricity.
