Can you give me 2 fact about the incandescant light bulb?

-It's a very old technology quickly being replaced by newer more efficient technologies. -The light produced in the bulb is created by electricity heating up a filament inside the bulb creating light. This wouldn't be possible without the bulb however, since oxygen would quickly end this reaction of the filament through oxidation.

Why do the light bulb remain unlit when the electrodes were placed in the deionized water?

Best way to explain this Question is by giving a counter example; Light bulb will light up when electrodes are placed in an ion solution. Why is that? This is because when a potential difference is created in an ion solution, the ions are able to react in a redox (reduction and oxidation) reaction. This allows the path of the electrons to be continued even in the liquid medium; This is why we see the light bulb light up! Now to answer the original question, the light bulb cannot light up in deionized water because there exists no ions within the solution. This means that the circuit no longer exists at the liquid medium thus the light bulb will remain unlit hope this helps - bwabwa
