Sugar solution does not conduct electricity because it does not contain?
Answer: A sugar solution does not conduct electricity because it does not contain ions. Sugar is not an electrolyte -- a substance which ionizes when dissolved in water.Answer: Sugar, as a non-electrolyte substance, does not produce ions when dissolved in water. A solution of sugar contains molecules of sucrose, but no ions. The absence of ions in a sugar aqueous solution makes it a non electricity conductor fluid.
Why will be change in the potato cube in concentrated sugar solution and distilled water respectively after an hour?
In sugar solution the potato cube absorb the solution , but in distilled solution the cube do not absorb it.
Does conductivitiy of water change as concentration of sugar change?
No. Sugar solution is not an electrolyte because it has no free charges in the solution to carry the electricity.
What happen when the distilled water is test by Benedict's solution?
Just plain old distilled water? You'll get dilute Benedict's. Benedict's looks for sugar, and if there isn't any it won't react.
Which solution will conduct electric a sugar solution or a salt solution?
First of all, this is a stupid question I mean are you in 1st Grade? But yes salt conducts electricity much better than sugar.
Is sugar solution a good conductor?
no salt solution is the conductor of electricity as sugar doesn't have as great an ionization as table salt

What property of the water most likely change after the teacher added the sugar?
Well, if you adding sugar to a beaker of distilled water, then you will find that the water is now a conductor of electricity. You can show this with a conductivity tester.
Does sugar in solid form conduct electricity?
well technically anything can conduct electricity..... but that doesnt mean it will be easier because of higher and lower resistances.
Is sugar a conductor or non-conductor of heat?
Everything conducts heat and electricity (if the voltage is high enough). Some things do it well, some things do it poorly. Sugar is one of those things that does it poorly. Actually not every thing conducts electricity such as rubber even if at high voltage
Does conductivitiy of water change as concentration of sugar change?
No. Sugar solution is not an electrolyte because it has no free charges in the solution to carry the electricity.
Is sugar a good conductor of electricity?
No. In either solid or dissolved forms. (It's non-polar.)
Why does a sugar- water solution not conduct electricity?
Because although sugar dissolves in water, it does not produce ions in solution. Electric current travels through solution by hopping from cation to cation and since sugar produces no cations (or ions of any sort) in solution, the current cannot travel through the solution. Therefore, the solution as a whole does not conduct electricity
If two cubes of potatoes are put into concentrated sugar solution and distilled water and are left for an hour what will happen?
if this is an osmosis questions. the one in sugar will shrink and the one in water should swell up. in the sugar solution the concentration or [] of sugar is high outside therefore the water moves from inside the potato to the outside to try to equalize the []. the opposite is true for the potato in distilled water
Why doesn't sugar placed in water conduct electricity?
For a fluid to conduct electricity, it must contain ions. Ions carry electrons through the fluid, making the fluid a conductor. Sugar (C6H12O6) does not conduct electricity because the molecule is non-polar. When it is mixed with water, no ions are formed because water, a polar molecule, will not dissolve this compound by the principle "like dissolves like". Because there are no ions in this mixture, sugar will not conduct electricity.
A dialysis bag is filled with distilled water and then placed in a sucrose solution?
Distilled water will move out of the dialysis bag and into the sucrose solution due to osmosis and the fact that the dialysis bag has a hypertonic solution of H2O as compared to the sucrose solution.
