no, because it has nothing to ionise. in water, it conducts electricity because the acid ionises water causing ions to form, thereby conduct electricity

Does glacial acetic acid conduct electricity?

Only extremely poorly.


What is the colour of glacial acetic acid?

Glacial acetic acid is concentrated acetic acid. It is clear.


How glacial acetic acid soluble in ether?

Does glacial acetic acid smell the same as acetic acid?

Glacial acetic acid is pure acetic acid, not mixed with water. The smell of glacial acetic acid is much stronger than that of dilute acetic acid. Other than the greater intensity, the smell is exactly the same.


Is glacial acetic acid flammable?

Per the MSDS, yes glacial acetic acid is flammable.


Which is more conductive between glacial acetic acid and 6 M acetic acid?

Conductivity of glacial Ac.ac. is lower, because there are (almost) none free protons. To get them 'free' to conduct some water is needed.


Difference between 0.1 M acetic acid and glacial acetic acid?

Glacial acetic acid doesn't have water in it. Acetic acid ordinarily would be in a solution. Acetic acid is a weak acid, but it can be very concentrated. Glacial acetic acid is a acetic acid of a high purity more then 99.75 %


Is there expiry date for glacial acetic acid?

Generally speaking, glacial acetic acid expires 3 years from the date of manufacture.


Why is glacial acetic acid a non-electrolyte?

it is a non-electrolyte because acetic acid is a moderately poor covalent compound that reacts only partly to form ions in solution. Because there are so few ions present, solutions of these substances do not conduct electricity (or they are very poor conductors).


If 15.0 of glacial acetic acid is diluted to 1.40 with water what is the of the resulting solution the density of glacial acetic acid is 1.05?

You are leaving out some vital information here. Numbers have no applicability to chemical problems unless they have units attached. So, you could have 15.0 milliliters of glacial acetic acid, or 15.0 moles of glacial acetic acid, or 15.0 grams of glacial acetic acid, but you can't have 15.0 of glacial acetic acid, it doesn't mean anything. You have three different numbers in the above question, with no units attached to any of them. Numbers must have units.


Is glacial acetic acid a strong electrolyte?

No, acetic acid is always a weak electrolyte.
