    The list of strong, weak and non-electrolytes is given below from the examples listed in the question.

    Explanation:

    A strong electrolyte would completely or almost fully dissociate or in aqueous solution; strong acids and bases are generally examples, as well as salts. The following are strong electrolytes:

    Hydrochloric acid, HCl Calcium hydroxide, Ca (OH) 2 Potassium chloride, KCl

    A weak electrolyte would only partly be ionized in solution; major examples are weak acids and bases. Examples of such include:

    Methylamine, CH3NH2 Hydrofluoric acid, HF

    A non-electrolyte will not dissociate in aqueous solution. The following are non-electrolytes:

    Sucrose, C12H22O11 Methanol, CH3OH

    HCl - strong electrolyte

    Ca (OH) ₂ - strong electrolyte

    HF - weak electrolyte

    CH₃NH₂ - weak electrolyte

    KCl - strong electrolyte

    CH₃OH - nonelectrolyte

    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ - nonelectrolyte

    Explanation:

    A compound that is completely ionized in water is a strong electrolyte, a compound that is partially ionized in water (1-10% solubility) is a weak electrolyte and a nonelectrolyte isn't ionized in water. Strong bases and acids are strong electrolytes. Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Salts are strong electrolytes.

    HCl is a strong acid, that means is a strong electrolyte

    Ca (OH) ₂ is a strong base, that means is strong electrolyte

    HF is a weak acid, thus, is a weak electrolyte

    CH₃NH₂ is a weak base, thus, is a weak electrolyte

    KCl is a salt, thus, is a strong electrolyte

    CH₃OH is not ionized in water when dissolved, thus, is a nonelectrolyte

    C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ is not ionized in water, thus, is a nonelectrolyte
