Question

give explanation too ItzLavender26

In which of the following forms do electrovalent compounds conduct electricity?

A. only in solid form

B. both in solid form and in aqueous solution

C. both in aqueous solution and in molten form

D. in solid form, molten form and in aqueous solution

Answer 1

$\huge{\bold{\underline{\fbox{\blue{Answer:}}}}}$

The correct option is (C), both in aqueous solution and in molten form.

$\underline{\fbox{Explanation:}}$

Electrovalent compounds in the solid state do not conduct electricity because movement of ions in the solid state is not possible due to their rigid structure. But these compounds conduct electricity in the molten state. This is possible in the molten state since the electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions becomes weak. Thus, the ions move freely and conduct electricity

Answer 2

Thanks for your question...

Your required answer :

• C. both in aqueous solution and in molten form.

Reason :

• Because electrovalent compund does not conduct electricity in solid form
