WHAT YOU MEAN BY ELECTROLYTE?

Electrolytes are liquid substances that act as a medium to conduct electricity. They are referenced in a number of different contexts, the most common including health and fitness, and various electronics and automotive disciplines. An electrolyte is full of ions, which are atoms that have some sort of net electric charge, either positive or negative. One that is dilute has a relatively small amount of ions for its volume, while a concentrated one has a high amount of ions.
