Why does liquid iodine not conduct electricity?
Liquid iodine does not conduct electricity because it does not contain free ions or electrons that are necessary for the flow of electric current. Iodine molecules in liquid form do not dissociate into ions or have mobile charge carriers, so they are not able to carry an electric charge.
Why does potassium iodine solution conduct electricity?
Potassium iodine solution conducts electricity because it contains ions that are free to move and carry electric charge. When an electric field is applied, the ions in the solution can migrate towards the oppositely charged electrodes, allowing the flow of electric current.
What can conduct an electric current?
an ionic compound
Does water conduct an electric current?
Yes it does.
Why do ionic crystals conduct electric current in liquid phase or when dissolved in water but do not conduct electric current in the solid phase?
because of the gravity or Magnetricity
Can electric current pass through alcohol Explain?
Yes, alcohol is a liquid and has delocalised electrons which can carry the electrical current. Edited: Seriously? Unless there are impurities in the alcohol that are electrolytes, alcohol will NOT conduct an electric current. Alcohols are considered as NON ELECTROLYTES, as they do not ionize and thus will not conduct a current. (Dr.J.)
Why do ionic crystals conduct electric current in the liquid phase or when dissolved in water but do not conduct electric current in the solid phase?
because when the ions can move around freely, they can conduct electricity better
What is the ability to conduct electric current?
you may find the answer from the periodic tables electron orbiting the nucleus is the answer
What would you expect to conduct an electric current?
the metal
What is dissolved in water will conduct an electric current?
an electrolyte
What are the 3 properties of metal?
They are lustrous and malleable They conduct heat They conduct electric current
What are the 3 metallic properties?
They are lustrous and malleable They conduct heat They conduct electric current
