Answer 1

Answer:

option D is correct.

Explanation:

1. alcohol had hydrogen . and we know that hydrogen containing compounds when dissolved in water it split into ions and due to presence of hydrogen ions it conduct electricity . now when we dissolve alcohol in to water it doesnot dissocates and due to absence of hydrogen ions or hydronium ions alcohol does not conduct electricity .
2. from this we conclude that all acids are hydrogen containing compounds but all hydrogen containing compounds are not acids
