Electrolytes Produce positive (+) and negative (-) ions when they dissolve in water. In water conduct an electric current. Electrolytes
Strong electrolytes ionize 100% in solution. Equations for the dissociation of strong electrolytes show the formation of ions in aqueous (aq) solutions. H 2 O 100% ions NaCl(s) Na + (aq) + Cl - (aq) Strong Electrolytes
Nonelectrolytes Form only molecules in water. Do not produce ions in water. Do not conduct an electric current. Nonelectrolytes

An element is a substance that consist of the same atoms. 115 elements have been identified 83 elements occur naturally on Earth gold, aluminum, lead, oxygen, carbon Universe:H(91%);He(8.75%);Others(0.25%) Many elements have been created by scientists technetium, americium, seaborgium 1.4
