What makes a fruit or vegetable conduct electricity?
The water inside the fruit or the vegetable, makes it conduct electricity.
Why water does not conduct electricity but can be use as an Electrolyte in electrolysis to form hydrogen and oxygen gas?
Water H2O contains the 2 elements hydrogen and oxygen. These two elements cannot conduct electricity althought they are in their pure state. Consider Sodium Chloride in the aqueous or molten state. This compound can conduct electricity in the aqueous state because in contains Sodium which is a metal and a good conductor of electricity.Whereas water being already aqueous it cannot conduct electricity due to the absence of metal in its compound, therefore it cannot be an electrolyte.Note: It is said that water is a conductor of electricity. The main reason is that the water we drink or use for domestic purposes have minerals(metallic solids) present. But i think that these minerals are neglagible in the case of electrolysis.
Is water conductive?
Water that is highly purified will not conduct. Not all purified water is minerals free. minerals help the water conduct better and pure water doesn't have minerals, so the water doesn't conduct and doesn't make electricity. Pure water will not conduct current it is the minerals found within the water, that allow current to flow. Rebecca Gosselin 11 years old
Can rusty nails conduct electricity?
Yes, A Rusted Nail can conduct Electricity because every element has some free Electrons in it, and remember, free electrons always conduct Electricity. --Dhruv
Does an iron nail conduct electricity?
Yes they do, they have approximately .3 volts of conductivity.
What mixes with water that can conduct electricity?
An ionic compound dissolved in water is an electrolyte and can conduct electricity.
Would conduct electricity mixed with water?
A water solution containing ions conduct electricity.
Does pure water conduct any electricity at all?
No, pure water does not conduct electricity because there are no other solutions present. For the water to conduct electricity, there has to be an electrolyte. Salt water, Tap water, and sugar water do conduct a little electricity because they contain soluble ionic compounds.
Does water conduct battery electricity?
It doesn't conduct electricity if it is pure water as there are no flowing ions. But in un-pure water electricity can be conducted.
Does water have electricity?
Water itself does not conduct electricity, but it can become a conductor if it contains impurities or ions. This is why pure water does not conduct electricity, but tap water or saltwater can.
What is the need for fog harvesting?
as fog harvesting turns water into electricity it is especially needed in the mountain areas to bring electricity there as there is a shortage of electricity there.........................
What is the link between water that contains other substance and is ability to conduct electricity?
pure water does not conduct electricity. the presence of electrolytes in the water is what conducts electricity. the equation for the conductivity (ability to conduct electricity) Conductance = 1/ resistance
Can water conduct electricity in solid state?
No. Water can only conduct electricity in its liquid state with dissolved ionic solutes.
Can tap water conduct electricity?
Yes, tap water can conduct electricity due to the presence of dissolved ions like sodium and chloride. However, pure water does not conduct electricity because it lacks these ions. It's always important to be cautious when dealing with electricity and water to prevent accidents.
How acids and salts conduct electricity?
They conduct electricity only if they are electrolytes: in water solutions or when they are melted.
How do ionic compounds conduct?
Do_ionic_compounds_conduct_electricitycompounds conduct electricity when they are either dissolved in water of they are molten. If they remain a solid then they will not conduct electricity
How do water conduct electricity?
Water can conduct electricity because it contains dissolved ions, such as sodium and chloride. These ions allow for the flow of electric current through the water. Pure water, with no ions present, is a poor conductor of electricity.
