Is glucose a ionic or molecular compound?
Table sugar is a molecular compound. Ionic compounds are in general formed between a metal and a nonmetal. The exceptions are polyatomic ions that can also form ionic compounds, like ammonium or hydronium. Table salt (sodium chloride) is an example of a common ionic compound.
Is hydrogen peroxide an ionic or molecular compound?
Molecular compounds are commonly formed by hydrogen. Look at sugar: C6H12O6 Look at natural hydrogen compounds: H2 I'm sure under certain circumstances hydrogen may form an ionic compound with other elements, but you will never find it in nature. On the contrary--acids are ionic compounds and most release a proton (H+) to the aqueous solution.
What is the solution that conducts electricity?
These solutions contain ions, as for example soluble salts.
Is sugar a non electrolyte?
Non-electrolyte since it does not dissociate in a water.
How are the dissolved particles of a molecular solid such as sugar different from the dissolved particles of an ionic solid such as table salt?
The components of ionic solids are held together by ionic bonds and when dissolved in a polar solvent (like water) they will dissociate into ions. For example, salt (NaCl) dissolves into Na+ and Cl-. A molecular solid like sugar, however, is held together by stronger covalent bonds and will remain the in the solvent as a whole molecule.
Is sugar water ionic or covalent?
Sugar is a molecular solid. A solution of sugar in water is neither ionic or covalent, but rather a homogeneous mixture.

Does a solution formed from the dissolving of sugar in water conduct electrcity?
No, because it is not ionic.
What dissolves in a solution?
C6h12o6

How do agueous solutions of ionic and molecular compounds difer?
Aqueous [note spelling] solutions of ionic compounds conduct electricity, but aqueous solutions of molecular compounds do not, unless the molecular compounds dissociate into ions when dissolved. Sugar, acetone, ethanol, and methanol, for example, do not dissociate, but acetic acid does.
Why does sugar have a higher solubility rate than salt?
because the inter molecular bonds in sugar are very weaker, where as salt will be haaving strong ionic bonds.
How do the electrical condutivitys of metallic solids compare to the conductivities of molecular solids?
Actually, it would be considered either ionic or covalent. Ionic substances are good electrical conductors, because they can easily disperse into their ions once put into a solution, as with covalent polar substances. Covalent nonpolar substances have no electrical conductivity. Hope this helps. :)

What are the most likely particles present in Na Cl solutions and in sucrose solutions?
In water? If so - salt solution - the fllowing hydrated ions - H+, OH-, Na+, Cl- plus molecular H2O. Sugar solution - hydrated sugar molecules, molecular H2O and H+ and OH- hydrated ions
