∙ 14y agoUsing salt water to conduct electricity can lead to corrosion of the conducting material due to the salt content. It can also result in the production of harmful byproducts, such as chlorine gas, during electrolysis. Additionally, salt water is less efficient than other conducting materials, such as copper wire, for transmitting electricity over long distances.
Yes, electricity does travel through water because it contains ions that can conduct electrical current. However, pure water is a poor conductor of electricity, while impurities in the water can increase its conductivity. Using water to conduct electricity can be dangerous and lead to electric shock or short circuits.
Water can conduct electricity because it contains dissolved ions, such as sodium and chloride. These ions allow for the flow of electric current through the water. Pure water, with no ions present, is a poor conductor of electricity.
Yes, water can conduct electricity because it contains ions and impurities that allow the flow of electric current. Pure water, however, is a poor conductor of electricity.
Metals such as copper and aluminum are good conductors of electricity. Water that has impurities in it, such as salt, also conducts electricity. Other materials like graphite and some types of acids can also conduct electricity.
Pure water does not conduct electricity well because it has very few ions. However, when impurities or ions are added to water, such as salt or minerals, it can conduct electricity. Other liquids that can conduct electricity include acids, bases, and some solvents.
The advantages and disadvantages of distillation are quite vast. On advantage of distillation is that the water is pure and will not conduct electricity.
Nope. Sugar water doesn't carry or conduct electricity.
No, pure water does not conduct electricity because there are no other solutions present. For the water to conduct electricity, there has to be an electrolyte. Salt water, Tap water, and sugar water do conduct a little electricity because they contain soluble ionic compounds.
A water solution containing ions conduct electricity.
An ionic compound dissolved in water is an electrolyte and can conduct electricity.
It doesn't conduct electricity if it is pure water as there are no flowing ions. But in un-pure water electricity can be conducted.

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
No. Water can only conduct electricity in its liquid state with dissolved ionic solutes.
They conduct electricity only if they are electrolytes: in water solutions or when they are melted.
Do_ionic_compounds_conduct_electricitycompounds conduct electricity when they are either dissolved in water of they are molten. If they remain a solid then they will not conduct electricity
