Question

A solution of cane sugar does not conduct electricity, but a solution of sodium chloride is a good conductor. Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

• "A solution of cane sugar does not conduct electricity because cane sugar is a covalent compound, which is bonded by the sharing of electrons. In the solution, it does not have ions to conduct electrical charges across the solution. But common salt consists of sodium and chloride ions and is formed by the transfer of one electron of sodium to a chlorine atom. When this salt dissolves in water to form its solution, ions get dispersed across the solution due to which the solution conducts electricity across the solution. "

A solution of cane sugar does not conduct electricity, but a solution of sodium chloride is a good conductor. Why?

$\huge\mathcal{\fcolorbox{lime}{black}{\blue{Answer :-}}}$

Cane sugar is a compound wh.ich does not have ions even in solution and contains only molecules. Hence, it does not con.duct electricity. On the other hand, sodium chloride solution contains free mobile ions and allows electric current to passes through it. This makes it a good conductor of electricity.
