Question

15. Why does an aqueous solution of an
acid conduct electricity

ionisation
dissociation
non-ionisation
None​

Answer 1

Answer:

Acids undergo dissociation in aqueous solution to form H+ ions. When electricity is passed through an aqueous solution of an acid, the H+ ions reach the cathode and each H+ ion picks up one electron from the cathode to form H2 gas. Because of this reaction, an aqueous solution of acid conducts electricity.
