A substance will conduct an electric current if it?
A substance will conduct an electric current if it forms ions in solution. A solute that produces ions in solution is an Electrolyte. An Electrolytic Solution is a solution that conducts electricity.
What is an ionic compound that will conduct an electric current when it forms an aqueous solution is a?
This compound is an electrolyte.
What is A substance that conducts an electric current in solution?
A substance that dissolves in solution to conduct an electrical current is an "electrolyte" or, less commonly, an "ionogen".
Will sugar dissolved in water conduct electric currant?
Yes, it will conduct electric current much better than plain water. The sugar molecules in water form a clear solution by ionization facilitating the path of electrons of electric current.
A compound that does not conduct an electric current in aqueous soltion or in molten state?
A compound that does not conduct an electric current in aqueous solution or in molten state is a covalently bonded compound. It could also be called a "non-ionogen".
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.
Why does cesium bromide in an aqueous solution conduct electric current?
Cesium bromide is dissociated in water in ions.
What is conductivity of milk?
The conductivity of the milk is defined by the substances in solution which can ionize and which therefore conduct an electric current.
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)
What conditions is magnesium bromide able to conduct an electric current?
Being an ionic compound magnesium chloride is dissociated in solution.
Does iodine conduct electric current?
no,
What makes it possible for a solution to conduct an electric current?
Something is conductive if it transfers something. Water is conductive for electricity and heat for example because those energies are transferred through it.
