Because of the high proton concentration.
A strong acid dissociates completely into ions in solution, producing more free ions to carry an electric current. In contrast, a weak acid only partially ionizes in solution, resulting in fewer free ions available to conduct electricity.
A strong acid dissociates completely in water to form more ions, leading to a higher concentration of charged particles available to conduct electricity. In contrast, a weak acid only partially dissociates, resulting in a lower concentration of ions and therefore lower conductivity.
Sulfuric acid dissociates more completely into ions in solution, yielding a higher concentration of charge carriers to conduct electricity compared to citric acid which dissociates less. Additionally, sulfuric acid is a strong acid with higher acidity and better conductivity compared to citric acid which is a weak acid with lower conductivity.
Acid solutions conduct 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.
No, H2SO4 (sulfuric acid) is considered a strong electrolyte because it dissociates completely into ions in solution, allowing it to conduct electricity. Nonelectrolytes do not dissociate into ions in solution and do not conduct electricity.
Yes, nitric acid is a strong electrolyte and can conduct electricity when dissolved in water. The nitric acid molecules dissociate into ions in solution, allowing for the flow of electric current.
pH of the strong acid solution will be lower than the pH of the weak acid solution due to the stronger dissociation of the strong acid.
Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid formed when carbon dioxide dissolves in water. It does not conduct electricity as effectively as hydrochloric acid (HCl), which is a strong acid that dissociates completely into ions in water. Carbonic acid only partially dissociates into ions, resulting in lower conductivity compared to hydrochloric acid.
Strong
Acetic acid is a weak electrolyte, meaning it partially ionizes in solution, resulting in fewer ions available to conduct electricity compared to HCl, which is a strong electrolyte and fully ionizes in solution, producing more ions for better electrical conductivity.
A strong electrolyte, such as a strong acid, strong base, or soluble salt, that is completely dissociated into ions in a solution is able to conduct a sharp electrical current. This high conductivity is due to the presence of free-moving ions that allow the flow of electricity through the solution.
