ARE ALL SALTS STRONG ELECTROLYTES OR THERE ARE SOME WEAK ELECTROLYTES WHICH ARE SALTS?
Salt is common name given to compounds that are formed by the reaction of acid and base. Generally all the salt contain cation and anion. Salt can be classified as weak electrolyte and strong electrolyte on the basis of dissociation into constituent ions when dissolved in water.
Strong Electrolytes Completely dissociate.
NaCl(s)→ Na+ (aq) + Cl- (aq)
Weak electrolytes Not completely dissociated
NH4OH (aq) ⇌ NH4 + (aq) + OH- (aq)
