Question

Alcohol and glucose also contain hydrogen but do not conduct electricity why

Answer 1

Because when they dissolve in water they do not release hydrogen ions. And hence we know that ions are charged particles which are necessary for conduction of electricity.

Answer 2

HEY FOLK....


As glucose and Alcohol are not ionic compounds, they are covalent bcoz electrons are shared rather transferred between two atoms.

And for conduction of electricity, solution must have free ions present, and in case of alcohol and glucose no free ions are there, so only presence of H is not sufficient but presence of H⁺ i.e. free ion is sufficient to conduct electricity.
