There are no mobile electrically charged particles in a glucose solution that are sufficiently long-lived to transport electric charge from one electrode immersed in a glucose solution to another.

How is silver electrolysis done?
In electrolysis, electric current is passed through a silver nitrate water solution, with silver, gold bullion, dore serving as the anode.
Why does current pass through salt solution but not through sugar solution?
In order to pass current through a solution you need to have ions in it. Table salt (NaCl) dissolves into Na+ and Cl- ions. Meanwhile sugar does not dissociate into ions in a water solution.
What is the conductivity of electricity?
conductivity is the ratio of current density to the electric field
How do you strip hydrogen from water?
Electrolysis - pass electric current through it
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.
Do magnetic effect of electric current causes a change in colour in a solution through which electric current is passed?
i don't believe it does
What happens when electric current is pass through a colloidal solution?
it will get hot
How is the electric current carry through the solution of the ionic compounds?
by moving the ions
Would an electric current be completed in NaCl solution?
yes, the charges of the dissolved ions in solution allow for electrons to be transfered through water. Completely pure water actually is a decent insulator of electric current
What happens when an electric current is passed through a solution?
Either the bulb will start glowing or the magnetic needle will show deflection
When electric current is passed through a strong solution of brine then what will happen?
the water will be heated and electrolysed to give hydrogen and oxygen gases
The flow of electrons through a conductor is called?
electric current
What is the continuous flow of electric charges through a material?
Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.
What are electromagents?
Magnets that are turned on by passing an electric current through them, and turned off by not allowing an electric current through them.
Why steel becomes a permanent magnet after electric current is passed through it?
Electric current is magnetic so when electric current pass through steel , steel will have the electric power and may be magnetic for awhile
Name given to solution which decompose when electricity is passed through them?
Electrolysis is the process by which ionic substances are decomposed (broken down) into simpler substances when an electric current is passed through them.
What happen when electric current is passed through water'?
when electric current is passed through acidified water hydrogen gas is released at the cathode..
