SOLUTIONS are homogeneous mixtures of two or more

substances which dissolve each other and each of its constituent substances can not be distinguished physically. A smaller number of substances in solution called the (substance) or the dissolved solute, while the substance is more numerous than other substances in solution is called the solvent. The composition of the solute and solvent in the solution is expressed in the concentration of the solution, while the mixing process of the solute and solvent form a solution called a dissolution or solvation.

Solution that can conduct electric current is called an

electrolyte solution.

Solution that can NOT conduct electric current is called an

non-electrolyte solution.

Svante Arrhenius, Swedish chemist known from the

theory of electrolytes in 1884 that to date the theory persisted and he almost was not awarded his doctorate at the University of Upsala, Sweden, as revealed this theory. According to Arrhenius, an electrolyte solution in water dissociates into electrically charged particles called positive and negative ions (positive ions and negative ions) Number of positive ion charge will be equal to the charge of negative ions, so that the charge of ions in neutral solution. Ions is in charge of delivering an electrical current.

ELECTROLYTE SOLUTION
Electrical conductivity of electrolyte solution depends on the type and concentration. Some of the electrolyte solution can conduct electricity very well even though the concentration is small, this solution are called strong electrolytes. While the electrolyte solution having a conductivity is weak despite the high concentration is called weak electrolytes. Strong electrolyte solution is a solution that can conduct electricity well. This is because the solute will break down completely (the degree of ionization? = 1) into ions in the solution that contains ions. Because many ions that can conduct electric current, the conductivity strongly. the equation, strong electrolyte ionization is characterized by one-way arrows to the

right.

Example: NaCl (s) Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) Classified as a strong electrolyte is:

1. Strong acids, such as HCl, HclO3, H2SO4, HNO3 and others. 2. Strong bases, the bases are alkali and alkaline earth groups, such as NaOH, KOH, Ca(OH) 2, Ba(OH)2 and others. 3. Salt which easy soluble, such as NaCl, KI, AL2(SO4)3 and others

Weak electrolyte solution is a solution that can conduct electrical current with the weak. This is because the solute will unravel some of (the degree of ionization? << 1) into ions in solution so that it contains fewer ions. This is because not all break down into ions (ionization is not perfect) so there is little in the solution of ions that can conduct electric current. In the equation, weak electrolyte ionization is marked with arrows two directions (back and forth) which usually called

reversible.

Example:
CH3COOH(aq) CH3COO-(aq) + H+(aq) classified as a weak electrolyte: 1. Weak acids, such as: CH3COOH, HCN, H2CO3, H2S, etc. 2. Weak bases such as NH4OH, Ni(OH)2 and others 3. Salts which hard soluble, such as AgCl, CaCrO4, PbI2 and others

Based on the nature of the electrical conductivity, the solution was divided into two non-electrolyte solutions and electrolyte solutions. Properties of electrolytes and non electrolytes based on the presence of s in solution that electric current will flow. If there are ions in solution, the solution is an electrolyte. If the solution is not found the ion that soution is called non-electrolyte solution.

ion

NON-ELECTROLYTE SOLUTION
In the non-electrolyte solution, the molecules are not ionized in solution, so there is no charged ions that can conduct electric current. Belong to this type of example: - A solution of urea - A solution of sucrose

- A solution of glucose
- A solution of alcohol and other
