Electrolyte KOH Liquid

Potassium Hydroxide Solution in Distilled Water suitable for Nickel Cadmium Batteries
Part number
RXSOL-37-1024-300
Brand
RXSOL
RXSOL

Overview

Electrolyte Liquid is a medium containing ions that is electrically conducting through the movement of those ions, but not conducting electrons. This includes most soluble salts, acids, and bases dissolved in a polar solvent, such as water. Upon dissolving, the substance separates into cations and anions, which disperse uniformly throughout the solvent. Solid-state electrolytes also exist. In medicine and sometimes in chemistry, the term electrolyte refers to the substance that is dissolved.

Applications

In science, electrolytes are one of the main components of electrochemical cells.

Characteristics and notes

Electrically, such Electrolyte liquid is neutral. If an electric potential is applied to such a solution, the cations of the solution are drawn to the electrode that has an abundance of electrons, while the anions are drawn to the electrode that has a deficit of electrons. The movement of anions and cations in opposite directions within the solution amounts to a current. Some gases, such as hydrogen chloride (HCl), under conditions of high temperature or low pressure can also function as electrolytes. 

Safety and SDS

Read the safety data sheet before handling. Wear suitable gloves and eye protection.
