  2. Salt (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(chemistry)

    If it is the result of a reaction between a strong acid and a strong base, the result is a neutral salt. Weak acids reacted with weak bases can produce ionic compounds with both the conjugate base ion and conjugate acid ion, such as ammonium acetate. Some ions are classed as amphoteric, being able to react with either an acid or a base. [59]

  3. Electrical resistivity and conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and...

    Electrical conductivity of water samples is used as an indicator of how salt-free, ion-free, or impurity-free the sample is; the purer the water, the lower the conductivity (the higher the resistivity).

    A home-made electrolyte drink can be made by using water, sugar and salt in precise proportions. [25] It is important to include glucose (sugar) to utilise the co-transport mechanism of sodium and glucose. Commercial preparations are also available [26] for both human and veterinary use.

  5. Galvanic cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_cell

    A salt bridge is used here to complete the electric circuit. If an external electrical conductor connects the copper and zinc electrodes, zinc from the zinc electrode dissolves into the solution as Zn ++ ions (oxidation), releasing electrons that enter the external conductor. To compensate for the increased zinc ion concentration, via the salt ...

  6. Molar conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_conductivity

    m is the molar conductivity at infinite dilution (or limiting molar conductivity), which can be determined by extrapolation of Λ m as a function of √ c, K is the Kohlrausch coefficient, which depends mainly on the stoichiometry of the specific salt in solution, α is the dissociation degree even for strong concentrated electrolytes,

  7. Electrochemical cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_cell

    The two half-cells are linked by a salt bridge carrying ions between them. Electrons flow in the external circuit. An electrochemical cell is a device that generates electrical energy from chemical reactions. Electrical energy can also be applied to these cells to cause chemical reactions to occur. [1]

    Trying out the Electric Salt Spoon is more complicated than you can imagine. First, you have to ensure the spoon end is properly affixed to the bulky handle housing all the tech.

  9. Electrical conductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_conductor

    In physics and electrical engineering, a conductor is an object or type of material that allows the flow of charge (electric current) in one or more directions. Materials made of metal are common electrical conductors. The flow of negatively charged electrons generates electric current, positively charged holes, and positive or negative ions in ...
