A solution conducts electric current can you use this property of the solution to determine if it is acid or basic?
No, you cannot, because both acidic and basic solutions can conduct electric currents.
What ions does an acid form in solution?
Conducts electric currents
What are some scenarios for a substance being classified as a weak acid?
A way to classify an acid as being weak is to determine how strongly the substance conducts electricity. If the acid or base conducts electricity strongly, it is a strong acid or base. If the acid or base conducts electricity weakly, it is a weak acid or base.
What allows acids to conduct electric current?
An strong acid strongly conducts electricity because contains a large number of ions. Acids can be described as proton donors, or electron acceptors. These ions, when in water, act as charge carriers and can hence conduct electricity (strong electrolytes).
Do stronger acids conduct more electricity?
A strong acid will be a better conductor of electricity as it tends to ionize or dissociate completely. Weak acids because they also ionize or dissociate will also conduct electricity but because they do not ionize to completion have fewer ions in solution and conductivity suffers because of it.
An acid base or salt which when dissolved in water conducts an electric current is called what?
It's called an electrolyte
A solution conducts electric current can you use this property of the solution to determine if it is acid or basic?
No, you cannot, because both acidic and basic solutions can conduct electric currents.
What ions does an acid form in solution?
Conducts electric currents
Is HCl a strong elecrolyte?
As a strong acid, yes. HCl disassociates almost 100% in solution, HCl H + and Cl - strongly conducts electric current in solution.
Is an electric current an acid or a base?
Neither
Do vinegar conduct electricity?
is vinegar conductor of electricity????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

What matter has the ability to carry an electric current?
An electrical conductor has the ability to carry an electric current. Most of the best conductors are metals such as copper. Water containing ions can also conduct an electric current (which lead-acid batteries rely on)
Does potassium vigorously react with acid and also conducts heat?
Potassium does indeed react vigorously with acid and also conducts heat well.

An strong acid strongly conducts electricity because contains a large number of ions. Acids can be described as proton donors, or electron acceptors. These ions, when in water, act as charge carriers and can hence conduct electricity (strong electrolytes).
Is brown organic rice acid forming just like all white rices or is it alkaline forming?
My understanding is that brown rice is neutral as far as acid/alkaline forming but white rice is acid forming.
Do stronger acids conduct more electricity?
A strong acid will be a better conductor of electricity as it tends to ionize or dissociate completely. Weak acids because they also ionize or dissociate will also conduct electricity but because they do not ionize to completion have fewer ions in solution and conductivity suffers because of it.
