<p>Alright my chem teacher asked us this during class and none could come up with the answer and I still cant come up with an answer.</p>
<p>Why are acids the strongest Electrolytes?</p>

<p>Why are acids the strongest Electrolytes?</p>
<p>If I remember correctly, it's because hydrogen bonds are the strongest non-covalent bonds.</p>
<p>Because acids, the strong ones at least, completely ionize in water, that is completely form ions when put in water. For example, H2SO4 completely breaks up into H+ and SO4 2- ions, therefore capable of conducting the most electricity (the defintion of electrolytes)</p>
<p>Oh yeah that makes sense. So why do strong acids ionize more completely than other electrolytes?</p>
<p>Thanks for the replies guys. </p>
<p>I think that acids ionize because the bonds between the hydrogen and the other molecule are weak. I think I understand now...thanks again</p>
