Why do acids and bases conduct electricity in water when pure water does not?
Acids and bases dissociate into ions in water, allowing them to conduct electricity. Pure water, on the other hand, has low ionic content and resists the flow of electricity due to its low concentration of ions. When acids and bases are dissolved in water, they increase the concentration of ions in the solution, which enhances its conductivity.
What properties do acids and bases have?
Acids generally taste sour, conduct electricity, turn blue litmus paper red, and have a pH less than 7. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, conduct electricity, turn red litmus paper blue, and have a pH greater than 7.
What characteristics do acids and bases have in common?
Acids and bases are both electrolytes that dissociate into ions in solution, and they both can react with each other to form water and a salt. They also both can conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Do strong acids and bases conduct more or less electricity than weak ones?
Strong acids and bases conduct more electricity than weak ones because they ionize completely in solution, creating more charged particles that can carry electric current. Weak acids and bases only partially ionize, resulting in fewer charged particles and lower conductivity.
What four properties that acids and bases have in common?
Both acids and bases are electrolytes, meaning they can conduct electricity in solution. They can react with each other to form water and a salt. Acids and bases can change the color of certain indicators to show their pH levels. Acids and bases can neutralize each other when mixed in the right proportions.
What property is acidity?
Acids can conduct electricity, have a sour taste, and bases will neutralize its properties. Bases can conduct electricity, feel slippery, and acids will neutralize its properties.
All acids and bases contain what that causes them to conduct electricity?
ions
What Electrical conductivity in acids and bases?
No. Pure water does not conduct electricity, but when something is put into water and dissociates (breaks apart), then electricity can travel across those ions. But this has nothing to do with pH.
Is there anything acids and bases have in common?
They both have water in common, and both conduct electricity.

Is acid a part of electricity?
Acids are not part of electricity, though acids can conduct electricity.
Is a property of acids?
it will turn blue litmus paper redAll acids dissociate fully or partially, into ions and give protons in the aqueous medium.
Could any of the properties of acids and bases be conductors of electricity?
Yes, acids and bases that ionize in water can conduct electricity. When dissolved in water, acids release hydrogen ions (H+) and bases release hydroxide ions (OH-), which allow for the flow of electric current. Strong acids and bases are better conductors than weak ones.
What properties do acids and bases have?
Acids generally taste sour, conduct electricity, turn blue litmus paper red, and have a pH less than 7. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, conduct electricity, turn red litmus paper blue, and have a pH greater than 7.
What do acids bases and salts have in common?
Acids, Bases, and Salts are all grouped together in a category called electrolytes, which means that a solution of a given substance will conduct electricity.!! :)
