What substance conducts electricity when dissolved in water?
An electrolyte.
What conducts electricity when dissolve in water?
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
What general name is given to substances that conduct electricity in a solution?
A Liquid that conducts electricity and is decomposed in the process is called electrolyte.
What determines the strength of a solute as an electrolyte?
Solutes become electrolytes by ionizing. Ionic compounds therefore make good electrolytes; covalent compounds don't.
What is the link between water that contains other substance and is ability to conduct electricity?
pure water does not conduct electricity. the presence of electrolytes in the water is what conducts electricity. the equation for the conductivity (ability to conduct electricity) Conductance = 1/ resistance
What are the metallic property?
conducts electricity conducts electricity
A substance is classified as an electrolyte because?
...its aqueous solution conducts an electric current This is because solutions of acids, bases, and salts are electrolytes and conduct electricity. AK
How do banana peels generate electricity?
Bananas have a lot of water in them. The water has various ions including potassium, sodium, calcium, chloride... Electricity moves through water because of the electrolytes mentioned and other ions. The more salt in the water, the better it conducts electricity.
What is the conducts?
That means how good something conducts electricity.
Is electrolytes made of NaCl?
Any solution that conducts electricity is called an electrolyte; salt water, also known as an aqueous solution of NaCl, is a type of electrolyte, although certainly not the only type.
Is polyester a conductor of static electricity?
Not a good one. The phrase "conductor of static electricity" is basically nonsense. If something conducts electricity, then it conducts electricity.
Copper metal conducts electricity through electrons whereas it solved solution conducts electricity through ions do you agree?
no,if it is dissolved in solutions it conducts electricity through electron the electricity means flow of electrons.
