Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A strong electrolyte is a substance that dissociates completely in solution, producing ions that can conduct electricity. This is in contrast to weak electrolytes, which only partially dissociate in solution, and non-electrolytes, which do not ionize at all. Semiconductors, on the other hand, are materials with electrical conductivity properties intermediate between those of metals and insulators, and are not directly related to dissociation in solution.
