Electrolytic conductivity

Electrolytic conductivity refers to a material’s ability to transmit electric current through the movement of ions. In solutions like saltwater, ions are charged particles that carry current when they move towards oppositely charged electrodes under an electric field. The greater the number of free-moving ions, the higher the conductivity. This concept applies to liquids, solids, or solutions containing ions. Conductivity helps measure how well a substance can conduct electricity, which is important in contexts like water quality, battery function, and industrial processes.
