Electrolytes
Gilbert Lewis
- Concluded that electrolytes, when dissolved in water, split into electrically opposite positive and negative ions
- The degree the splitting occurs on depends on the nature of the substance and its concentration in the solution - being more developed the greater the dilution
- Ions were carriers of electric current
