Salt often refers to table salt or sodium chloride, however, salt can and does also refer to a class of chemical compounds, Cations from bases and anions from acids. Mercury, silver and lead halides for examples are "salts" and are not water solvable. Many metal carbonates are not dissolved in water, barium sulfate does not dissolve in water. there are others. some will dissovle but only very poorly.

Can electricity flow through heavy water?

Electricity can flow through pure heavy water only at sufficiently high voltages to ionize the water. However, heavy water, like normal water, can dissolve salts to produce a solution that conducts electricity.


What is a conducting solution?

A conducting solution is a solution that either conducts heat, electricity or sound. The conductivity of a water solution depends on its concentration of dissolved salts and other substances that ionize in the solution.

What ionizes in water to release ions other than H plus and OH?

Common soluble salt (like NaCl) dissociates into ions (Na+ and Cl-) when it is dissolved in water.Ionize in water to release ions other than H plus and OH minus is salts. Acids is ionized in water to release hydrogen ions and a negative ion other than hydroxide.


Is zinc conductive in solution (if it dissolves in water)?

Zinc itself is not conductive when dissolved in water because it does not ionize significantly to form conductive ions in solution. However, if zinc is combined with other substances that ionize in water, such as zinc salts (e.g., zinc sulfate), the resulting solution can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions. Therefore, while pure zinc does not conduct in water, zinc compounds can lead to conductivity depending on their solubility and dissociation in the solution.


Which solutes when dissolve in water will ionize and form a solution that conducts electricity?

An ionic compound. Because an ionic compound is made up of ions that either carry or donate electrons


Ions which allow a solution to conduct electricity are known as?

Salts that ionize in water and form solutions that can conduct a current are called electrolyte.example: sodium chloride,potassium chloride.


When salts are put into water they dissolve into?
