Differentiate between the following pair based on the information given in the brackets. Conductor and electrolyte (conducting particles)

A conductor is a substance that has the ability to conduct electric current in the form of electrons, either in molten or in solid state is called as conductor. Copper and iron are the conductors of electricity. An electrolyte is a salt solution that conducts electricity due to the ionisation of salt. The major electricity carriers in an electrolyte are the ions. An acidic solution of copper sulphate and a solution of sodium chloride are some electrolytes.

Match the following columns Column I Column II Ammonium hydroxide solution Contains only ions Dilute hydrochloric acid Contains only molecules Carbon tetrachloride Contains ions and molecules

Ammonium hydroxide is a weak base. Therefore, it is a weak electrolyte. It dissociates partially in aqueous solutions. Therefore, it contains both ions and molecules in aqueous solutions. Dilute hydrochloric acid is a strong electrolyte. Therefore, it dissociates completely into ions. That is, it contains ions only. Carbon tetrachloride is a covalent compound. It does not dissociate into ions in aqueous solutions. Therefore, it contains only molecules. Column I Column II Ammonium hydroxide solution Contains ions and molecules Dilute hydrochloric acid Contains only ions Carbon tetrachloride Contains only molecules

Match the description given below with appropriate term from the list A to H: (A) Electrolysis (B) Alkali (C) Alkenes (D) Ammonium chloride (E) Base (F) Electrolyte (G) Sodium acetate (H) Alkynes A substance that allows electricity to pass through it in the fused state or in the aqueous solution.

A substance that allows electricity to pass through it in the fused state or in the aqueous solution is called an electrolyte. The dissolved electrolyte separates into anions and cations, which disperse uniformly through the solvent. These ions are responsible for carrying the current in the solution.
