Question

Explain an activity to show that acid solution in water conducts electricity with a proper diagram, materials required, steps, observation and result.
Please respond quickly.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

When an acid is dissolved in water,It lose hydrogen ions and loses lots of anions as well. Ionic solutions are good conductors of electricity. Weak acids like vinegar (acetic acid) conduct much less because it loses much fewer ions in solution.

The diagram is in the attachment.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Procedure:

• Take two beakers filled with dil. sulphuric acid and alcohol
• Take a cork and fix two nails on the cork

• Connect the nails to two terminals of 6V battery through a bulb and a switch.

OBSERVATION:

• When we switch on the current, beaker containing dil. sulphuric acid conducts electricity.
• Whereas beaker containing alcohol does not conduct electricity.
