water does not conduct electricity much when it is pure because it does not have any ions that are free to move. Only 0.00001% of H2O is broken into H+ ions and OH- ions . However when it is in a solution with other compounds such as NaCl it may conduct electricity as the ions are free to move when electricity passes trough.

∙ 15y agoHow electricity travels is just by the electrons in water. Fresh water is just H2O. Since the hydrogen atoms are paired with a oxygen atom, a hydrgen bond is form. Hydrogen bonds are the strongest molecular bond, so the electrons are more fastened to the molecules than in regular water, where there are different metals, etc. to conduct the electricity

Why is methyl orange soluble in water?
Methyl orange is soluble in HOT water, but why is it solube in water no informations were found.A simple answer would be: " If it is soluble in water is because it has properties which allows it to be soluble in water"
Why is cesium astatide soluble in water?
If CsAt would be prepared, would behave as a polar molecule and soluble in water.
Is water a mechanical mixture or solution?
Water is a solvent. However, if you happened to put something in water that is not soluble, such as some sand, then you would have a mechanical mixture. So you can get either, with water.
Is sugar souble or insoluble in water?
Sugar is soluble in water forming a sugar solution. The sugar would be the solute. The water would be the solvent.

Would an ionic or covalent compound be more conductive in water when dissolved Explain?
An ionic compound dissociated in water is an electrolyte and is of course more conductive..
What would provide no water soluble or fat-soluble vitamins?
nitro
Is CsF soluble in water?
No, it is non-polar so it would not be soluble

Is B6 fat-soluble?
B6 is water soluble not fat soluble. if you would look at a Lewis structure for it, you would find that it has multiple hydrogen bonds (OH) which makes it a water soluble. a fat soluble would be a non polar molecule containing hydrocarbon chains (CH3)
