MCQ
When potential difference is applied across an electrolyte, then Ohm's law is obeyed at:
  • A
    Zero potential.
  • B
    Very low potential.
  • C
    Negative potential.
  • D
    High potential.

Answer

  1. High potential.

Explanation:

When voltage is applied to an  electrolyte, dissociation of ions starts.

At low voltages as the voltage increases the number of ions conducting also increases making a non linear increase of current.

After a certain voltage when  the ions are dissociated and no more dissociation, the electrolyte behaves as a conductor and obeys ohm's law.

Thus at high voltages, an electrolyte obeys ohm's law.
