Question

compounds like alcohol and glucose also contain hydrogen but are not characterized as acids. Describe an experiment to prove it.​

Answer 1

As shown in figure insert two nails on the wooden or rubber cork and place it in a beaker. Now connect these iron nails with a bulb, a 6 volt battery and a switch using a wire. Now pour some alcohol or glucose such that the nails will dip into it. Now turn the switch on, you will see that the bulb will not glow. Now empty the beaker and add some HCl aqueous solution at this time the bulb will glow. This proves that an acid can conduct electricity while alcohols and glucose cannot, even when they are containing hydrogen.

Answer 2

since they do not give hydrogen ion

(arhennius and lowry bronsted concept)

since they don't accept a lone pair (lewis concept).

this is exact 100% answer of this question.
