In a water system, the "voltage" is the water pressure, the flow rate is the "current", and the pipe size is the "resistance". Low-voltage electrical current is equivalent to low-pressure water.

How is electric current similar to water current?

Electric current and water current are similar in that they both involve the flow of a substance - electrons in the case of electric current and water molecules in the case of water current. Both currents can be controlled and directed through the use of circuits or channels. Additionally, both currents can generate power and be harnessed for various applications.


Does water conduct an electric current?

Yes it does.


What happen when electric current passes through acidified water?

when electric current is passed through acidified water hydrogen gas is released at the cathode..


What A material that dissolves in water that does not conduct electric current is?

Sugar (sucrose) is a material that dissolves in water but does not conduct electric current. Sugar molecules do not ionize in water, so the solution does not carry electric charge.


What has no definte shape but conducts electric current?

Water.


What is dissolved in water will conduct an electric current?

an electrolyte


Will sugar dissolved in water conduct electric currant?

Yes, it will conduct electric current much better than plain water. The sugar molecules in water form a clear solution by ionization facilitating the path of electrons of electric current.


Why we feel electric current in normal water?

We feel electric current in normal water because it often contains dissolved ions, such as salts and minerals, which enhance its conductivity. When an electric current passes through water, these ions facilitate the flow of electricity, allowing us to sense the current. Additionally, pure water is a poor conductor, but the impurities present in normal water significantly increase its ability to transmit electric current. This is why we can feel a shock even in seemingly harmless water when there is an electrical source nearby.


Why do ionic crystals cunduct electric current in the liquid phase or when desolved in water but do not conduct electric current in the solid phase?

Magnetricity.


Can you boil water if you pass electric current through it?

Yes, we can boil water if we pass enough current through it......


What is given of when you give water a current?

Hydrogen and oxygen collect on the electrodes when a electric current flows through the water.


Which of the following is a property of nonmetals poor conductors of electric current very reactive with water malleable shiny?

Many - but not all - are poor conductors of electric current.
