Why is it important to have ions in a solution to conduct electricity?
For electricity to be conducted through a solution, the solution needs to be polar or have ions in it. Electricity can be conducted through water because water forms a polar covalent bond. This means that the Oxygen's electronegativity (it's ability to attract electrons) is so great that is controls the electrons in the bond with hydrogen, giving the Oxygen a partial negative charge and Hydrogen a partial positive charge. When ions are dissolved into solution, they have much larger charges than the covalently bonded H2O molecules. Because of this, electricity (which has a negative charge) can easily 'jump' from one positive ion to the next to get itself through the solution, making the solution a much stronger conductor of electricity.
Which term describes a solution the contains to much solute?
This is a concentrate solution.
In the process of electrolysis current can flow through liquid why?
In the process of electrolysis, current can flow through liquid because the liquid contains ions (charged particles) that can carry the electric current. When a potential difference is applied across the electrodes placed in the liquid, the ions move towards the electrodes, allowing the current to flow and chemical reactions to occur.
What term describes a solution that contains much solute?
This is a concentrated or a saturated solution.
What volume of lead acetate contains 0.4mol of lead ions?
This only depends on how much water is used to make this solution:0.4 mol Pb2+ ions in 1.0 Litre has a (molar) concentration value of 0.4 mol/L or 0.4 M Pb2+
What Term describes a solution contains too much solute?
This is a concentrated or a saturated solution.
A colliod has smaller particles than a solution?
No, a solution has much smaller particles than a colloid. In a solution the particles are individual atoms, molecules, or ions.
Why do some solutions conduct electricity while others do not?
How well something conducts electricity depends on its charge and how freely the electrons can move in it, for example, electricity will typically ignore humans in order to flow to a metal because metal is a much better conductor due to the fact that electrons in metal are much less bound to their atoms than that of humans.
Why do acids and bases make good electrical conductors when dissolved in water?
The acid is an electron donor while the base is an electron acceptor. The resulting negative ions in the acid being lighter in mass than the resulting positive ions in the base are much more mobile and thus facilitate better electrical conduction in the acid.
Is a saturated solution necessarily a dilute solution?
A saturated solution contains as much pof the dissolved material as possible. A dilute solution is almost the opposite, it has only a trace of the dissolved material and the solution could contain much more.
What term describes a solution that contains too much solute.?
An oversaturated solution describes a solution that contains more solute than can normally dissolve in the solvent at a given temperature. This can lead to the precipitation of excess solute as solid crystals.
Why only carbon shows negative oxidation state in its family?
because the electronegativeties of these elements are low thy don't have much tendency to form negative ions
