Yes, they both have a charge and therefore both can conduct electricity.

Why do acids and bases conduct electricity in water when pure water does not?
acids, salts, and bases have electrically charged ions in solution. neutral substances don't.
Why do strong acid and bases conduct electricity better than weak acids and bases?
Strong acids and bases dissociate into their conjuagate forms more readily then weak varients. To conduct electricity they must dissociate into these forms due to the formal charges associated allowing them to conduct electricity HCL -> H+ + CL- CH3COOH -> CH3OO- + H+ Equilibrium constant for the first is a lot higher then the second showing that stronger acids fully dissociate. Hope this helps
Do strong acids and bases conduct more or less electricity than weak ones?
Because of the ionization with in the water soulte
Is H2S04 a non electrolyte?
No H2SO4 (sulphuric acid) dose conduct electricity. in general, acids conduct electricity. Strong acids are strong conductors of electricity.
What some things that conduct electricity?
metal,acids,and water but many things conduct electricity even you
What property is acidity?
Acids can conduct electricity, have a sour taste, and bases will neutralize its properties. Bases can conduct electricity, feel slippery, and acids will neutralize its properties.
All acids and bases contain what that causes them to conduct electricity?
ions
What Electrical conductivity in acids and bases?
No. Pure water does not conduct electricity, but when something is put into water and dissociates (breaks apart), then electricity can travel across those ions. But this has nothing to do with pH.

Is there anything acids and bases have in common?
They both have water in common, and both conduct electricity.

Is acid a part of electricity?
Acids are not part of electricity, though acids can conduct electricity.
Is a property of acids?
it will turn blue litmus paper redAll acids dissociate fully or partially, into ions and give protons in the aqueous medium.

Because of the ionization with in the water soulte

No H2SO4 (sulphuric acid) dose conduct electricity. in general, acids conduct electricity. Strong acids are strong conductors of electricity.
What do acids bases and salts have in common?
Acids, Bases, and Salts are all grouped together in a category called electrolytes, which means that a solution of a given substance will conduct electricity.!! :)
How acids and salts conduct electricity?
They conduct electricity only if they are electrolytes: in water solutions or when they are melted.
