Question

how can you prove that acidic solution conduct electricity? explain the procedure to be followed.

Answer 1

In an acidic solution
Like for eg :
When we mix HCL with water the HCL ions seperate into H+ and CL-.
Then when we add this acidulated water in a circuit (simple cell) .When the electricity is passed through the acidulated water the ions carry them from anode to cathode .
In this way it is said that acidulated water conducts electricity due to the dissociation of ions (which occurs in strong acids only). Therefore it conducts electricity.
Hope it helps.

Answer 2

The procedure to be followed by a solution of acidic conduct electricity is:

• Acidic and alkaline solutions can transmit electricity because they have ions free to carry.

• Look at the formulas for these acids.

• They all contain H + ions.

• When the acid is purified the concentration of H + ions decreases and the pH rises to 7.

• Acidic solutions run on electricity and basic solutions do not.
• Both acidic and water-based solutions carry electricity.
• Acids, when dissolved in water release H + and foundations when dissolved in water release OH-ions.
