  2. Electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte

    An electrolyte is a substance that conducts electricity through the movement of ions, but not through the movement of electrons. [1] [2] [3] This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases, dissolved in a polar solvent like water. Upon dissolving, the substance separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly throughout the ...

  3. Van 't Hoff factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Van_'t_Hoff_factor

    The van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non- electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.

  4. Strong electrolyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_electrolyte

    In chemistry, a strong electrolyte is a solute that completely, or almost completely, ionizes or dissociates in a solution. These ions are good conductors of electric current in the solution.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionic_liquid

    These substances are variously called liquid electrolytes, ionic melts, ionic fluids, fused salts, liquid salts, or ionic glasses. [2] [3] [4] Ionic liquids have many potential applications. [5] [6] They are powerful solvents and can be used as electrolytes.

    Also acid ionization constant or acidity constant. A quantitative measure of the strength of an acid in solution expressed as an equilibrium constant for a chemical dissociation reaction in the context of acid-base reactions. It is often given as its base-10 cologarithm, p K a. acid–base extraction A chemical reaction in which chemical species are separated from other acids and bases. acid ...

  8. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    118 chemical elements have been identified and named officially by IUPAC.A chemical element, often simply called an element, is a type of atom which has a specific number of protons in its atomic nucleus (i.e., a specific atomic number, or Z).

  9. Rubidium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubidium_nitrate

    Rubidium compounds have very few applications. [1] Like caesium nitrate, it is used in infrared radiation optics, in pyrotechnic compositions as a pyrotechnic colorant and as an oxidizer, e.g. in decoys and illumination flares although it is rarely used in fireworks to produce a red-violet colour.
