MCQ
When potential difference is applied across an electrolyte, then Ohm's law is obeyed at:
- AZero potential.
- BVery low potential.
- CNegative potential.
- DHigh potential.
✓
Answer
- High potential.
Explanation:
When voltage is applied to an electrolyte, dissociation of ions starts.
At low voltages as the voltage increases the number of ions conducting also increases making a non linear increase of current.
After a certain voltage when the ions are dissociated and no more dissociation, the electrolyte behaves as a conductor and obeys ohm's law.
Thus at high voltages, an electrolyte obeys ohm's law.

Assertion : The electrical conductivity of earth's atmosphere decreases with altitude.
Reason : The high energy particles (i.e. 𝛾-rays and cosmic rays) coming from outer space and entering our earth's atmosphere cause ionisation of the atoms of the gases present there and the pressure of gases decreases with increase in altitude.
