Question

Out of C2 H5OH and KOH solutions, which solution will conduct electricity and why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

as we know weak acids or bases undergo partial disassociation and so there are no free electrons

but acids or bases undergo full disassociation and so there are free electrons

c2h5oh is a weak acid so no FREE ELECTRONS

NO FREE ELECTRONS ,NO ELECTRICITY PRODUCED

KOH is a strong base so there are FREE ELECTRONS

FREE ELECTRONS , ELECTRICITY PRODUCED

hope it helps u if yes pls mark as brainliest

THANK YOU

Answer 2

Explanation:

KOH will conduct electricity in aqueous state due to the dissociation of KOH into K+ and OH-. These ions help in conduction of electricity. Whereas in case of C 2H5OH does not dissociate much into its ions as C2H 5OH is a very weak base.

∴ Concentration of ions in solution is very less.

Hence, C 2 H 5 OH is a poor conductor of electricity.
