Originlly, Arrhenius believed tht there must be the sme number of positive nd negtive ions in solution. However, the modern theory of electrolytes sttes tht the totl positive ionic chrge must equl the totl negtive ionic chrge. Is there difference between these two sttements? If so, why did Arrhenius originl theory hve to be modified? Yes, there is difference between the two sttements. The Arrhenius theory would hve been correct if ll positive ions nd negtive ions hd equl but opposite chrges. However, different positive ions cn hve chrges of 1,, 3, or 4, nd different negtive ions cn hve chrges of 1-, -, or 3-. Thus, in the cse of solution of slt like clcium chloride (CCl ), there would be twice s mny chloride ions s clcium ions: however, the totl positive ionic chrge does equl the totl negtive ionic chrge.
