An strong acid strongly conducts electricity because contains a large number of ions. Acids can be described as proton donors, or electron acceptors. These ions, when in water, act as charge carriers and can hence conduct electricity (strong electrolytes).

To conduct an electrical current, you need movable charges. In such solutions, those are available in the form of ions.

Do stronger acids conduct more 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.


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.

Do substances which dissolve in water conduct an electric current?

Some do. Electrolytes, which are substances that break into ions when dissolved in water, will conduct electricity. Such substances include soluble salts, acids, and bases.Other water soluble substances are non electrolytes and do not break into ions in water, or at least do so in extremely minute amounts. They do not conduct electricity. These include alcohols, sugars, and some other polar compounds.
