Ionic Equilibria in Solutions

Michael Faraday classified substances into electrolytes and non-electrolytes based on their ability to conduct electricity in aqueous solutions. Electrolytes are further divided into strong and weak electrolytes. Strong electrolytes, like sodium chloride, fully ionize in water, while weak electrolytes, like acetic acid, only partially ionize. In weak electrolytes, an equilibrium is established between unionized molecules and ions, known as ionic equilibrium.
