Electrode vs Electrolyte. Electrolyte and electrode are two very important concepts discussed in the fields of electrochemistry. An electrolyte is basically a solution of ions. An electrode is a device that is used to create an electrical connection between a conductor and a non-conductor. Both of these concepts are widely used in fields such as electrolysis, metal plating, physical chemistry, thermodynamics and various other fields.
Electrolytes & Nonelectrolytes Electrolytes are substances that produce ions in solution. Substances can be categorized as strong electrolytes, weak electrolytes or nonelectrolytes. Strong Electrolytes Strong electrolytes are substances that only exist as ions in solution. Ionic compounds are typically strong electrolytes. Strong acids, strong bases and salts are strong electrolytes. When solid NaCl is placed in water, it completely dissociates to form Na + and Cl-ions. H 2 O NaCl (s) â Na + (aq) + Cl -(aq) Weak Electrolytes A weak electrolyte only partially dissociates in solution and produces relatively few ions.
