A very common question I get is âhow much is concrete per yardâ? It is a somewhat difficult question to answer because suppliers are frequently changing their prices, and there are many different pricing factors. However, in general the cost per yard as of today (March 29, 2011) is as follows: 2500 psi (I never use this) = $95-110 (Charlotte NC Metroâ Concrete Contractor Average) 3000 psi (most common) = $100-115 (Charlotte NC Metroâ Concrete Contractor Average)
Electrolytes are compounds which produce ions when in water. Soluble ionic compounds do this by breaking up into the constituent ions in water. But if the ionic compound is not soluble, such as lead chloride, then the compound does not break up into ions, and is thus not an electrolyte.
Electrolytes are substances which, when dissolved in water, break up into cations (plus-charged ions) and anions (minus-charged ions). We say they ionize. Strong electrolytes ionize completely (100%), while weak electrolytes ionize only partially (usually on the order of 110%). That is, the principal species in solution for strong electrolytes are ions, while the principal specie in solution for weak electrolytes is the un-ionized compound itself. Strong electrolytes fall into three categories: strong acids, strong bases, and salts. (Salts are sometimes also called ionic compounds, but really strong bases are ionic compounds as well.) The weak electrolytes include weak acids and weak bases.
