Question 42 • Chemistry

Which statement about electrolytes and nonelectrolytes is not true?

Answer
A
Electrolytes disperse as molecules in a solution.
B
Nonelectrolytes include cap c sub 6 cap h sub 12 cap o sub 6 and cap c sub 6 cap h sub 6 .
C
Nonelectrolytes include all molecular compounds that do not have a full charge.
D
Electrolytes dissociate into ions in the solution.

Explanation

Electrolytes produce ions in solution, allowing the solution to conduct electricity. Ionic electrolytes dissociate into ions, while some molecular electrolytes form ions by ionizing; they do not simply disperse as unchanged molecules. Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and benzene (C₆H₆) are examples of nonelectrolytes because they remain as molecules in solution.
