Are molten covalent compounds better conductors than molten ionic compounds?

Almost all molten covalent compounds are much worseconductors than almost any molten ionic compounds. However, note that some ionic compounds contain covalently bonded polyatomic ions, and many of these can conduct electricity as well as most other ions in a melt.

What does aqueous solutins contain in most bases?

In aqueous solutions, most bases contain hydroxide ions (OH-) as the active ingredient. These hydroxide ions are responsible for the basic properties of the solution, such as their ability to accept protons (H+) from acids.


What is the definition organic compound?

Acidic compounds contain which element?

Well it depends on what kind of acid you're talking about. Most people think of acids as hydrogen donating compounds and that is indeed one type of acid. It fits under the Bronsted-Lowry definition of an acid and under the Arrhenius definition (which says that acids are compounds that dissociate in water into hydrogen ions etc.). However, under the Lewis definition, an acid is anything that can accept an electron pair and it doesn't have to contain hydrogen.


What do most inorganic compounds not contain?

Carbon.


What compounds would produce a BASIC solution when dissolved in water?

Compounds such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), potassium hydroxide (KOH), and calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) would produce a basic solution when dissolved in water. These compounds are strong bases that dissociate into hydroxide ions (OH-) in solution, increasing the concentration of hydroxide ions and resulting in a basic pH.
