What conducts electricity when dissolve in water?
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
What is a liquid with a low density and that conducts electricity very well?
Saline is probably the best example (common salt dissolved in water).
Which is a molecular substance whose water solution conducts electricity?
This is an ionic compound dissociated in water.
Why is it dangerous to be wet or in water if you are handling electrical devices?
Water, when in contact with electricity, conducts the electricity to spread throughout the water instantly cause major electricity flow throughout the water. Water conducts electricity making it dangerous.
Can ethanol with water conducts electricity?
yes it can.
What is the Reaction of an ion with water called?
Dissolve, solution An ionic compound, when dissolved in water, conducts electricity.
Why do ionic compound conduct electricity we'll when they are dissolved in water?
Because, the ions are free to move about, and the solution conducts current.
What conducts electricity when dissolve in water?
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Does sodium chloride conduct electricity when it is dissolved?
Sodium chloride when dissolved in water forms an electrolyte that conducts electricity.
How is salt different from ammonia glucose water?
Salt is an ionic compound, it forms ions when dissolved in water. An ionic solution conducts electricity; ammonia or glucose dissolved in water will not conduct electricity as they are molecules not ions. Table salt is an ionic compound, NaCl (Sodium ion and Chloride ion)
How is salt different from ammonia glucose and water?
Salt is an ionic compound, it forms ions when dissolved in water. An ionic solution conducts electricity; ammonia or glucose dissolved in water will not conduct electricity as they are molecules not ions. Table salt is an ionic compound, NaCl (Sodium ion and Chloride ion)
How could you make sodium chloride conduct electricity?
Sodium chloride is an inorganic crystalline ionic compound. It is formed by the ions Na^(+) & Cl^(-). When SOLID these ions are held tightly in a crystalline lattice. So does NOT conduct electricity . However, when liquid or in aqueous solution the crystalline lattice breaks down and the ions are free to move. So when a potential difference (electricity) is put across these ions , they will move. The positive ions will move towards the negative point and conversely the negative ions will move to wards the positive point. Hence an electrical circuit is made. It is quite easy to dissolve sodium chloride in water to make an aqueous solution.. Electricity is conducted. #However, the melting point of sodium chloride is very high , so in a school lab. you will not be able to reach a high enough temperature to make the crystals melt. (solid to liquid). So for simplicity, just dissolve some sodium chloride (salt) in water and it will conduct electricity.
What conducts electricity in water?
Ions conduct electricity in water H3O+ and OH- and if salts are dissolved, those ions too.
Does sulphate conduct electricity?
Dry sulfates generally do not conduct electricity (very well... everything conducts electricity if the potential is high enough).Any ionic compound, including sulfate compounds, will conduct electricity if dissolved in water.
What kind of chemical bond conducts electricity if it is dissolved in water or melted?
An Ionic Bond
What mixes with water that can conduct electricity?
An ionic compound dissolved in water is an electrolyte and can conduct electricity.
Can baking soda dissolved in water conduct electricity?
Yes. In aqueous form, baking soda conducts electricity, but not as a solid.
