What else can I help you with?
Why do ionic crystals conduct electric current in the liquid phase or when dissolve in water but donot conduct electric current in the solid phase?
In the liquid phase (or dissolved in water), ions are able to move. That is what's necessary for electricity to flow in the body of an ionic compound. In the solid phase all those atoms are locked in position in the crystal. This is why the electrolysis of NaCl requires it to be molten (liquefied) first before it can conduct electricity.
Nacl does the solution conduct electricity?
A solution of NaCl in a solvent in which the cations and anions separate, for example in water, can conduct electricity.
In what state does NaCl conduct electricity?
NaCl can conduct electricity in the molten state, and when dissociated into its constituent ions in water, Na2+ and Cl-.
What in the liquid phase can be considered as a electrolyte co2 cuo h2o h2o2 naci?
In the liquid phase, only NaCl (sodium chloride) can be considered an electrolyte. When dissolved in water, NaCl dissociates into Na+ and Cl- ions, allowing it to conduct electricity. CO2, CuO, H2O (water), and H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) do not dissociate into ions in the same way and therefore are not considered strong electrolytes in solution.
Why cant NaCl conduct electricity in solid form?
one simple answer is that whan NaCl is solid the ions Na+ and Cl- are not free to move and conduct the electricity. when in a aqeous solution and as a liquid the ions are free to move and the electricity can be conducted. hope this helps
Why Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity?
Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity because it consists of a lattice structure of fixed ions and does not contain any free-moving electrons or ions that can carry an electric current. In order for a substance to conduct electricity, it must have mobile charged particles that can carry the electrical charge.
Can an aqueos solution of NaCl conduct electricity?
Yes, because the solution of NaCl is an electrolyte.
How does bonding in NaCl allow it to conduct electricity?
ionic compound
Will NaCl dissolved with glucose solution conduct electricity?
yes
What is an ionic compound dissolved in water that can conduct electricity?
NaCl
When does sodium chloride not conduct electricity?
Solid NaCl is not an electrolyte; the saline solution or the molten NaCl are electrolytes.
Is molten NaCl conducting electricity?
Yes, molten NaCl (sodium chloride) is conducting electricity. When solid NaCl is melted, the ionic bonds between sodium and chloride ions are broken, allowing the ions to move freely in the liquid. These mobile charged particles can carry an electric current, making molten NaCl a conductor of electricity.
