Question

Some liquid can conduct electricity and cannot.Why?

Answer 1

Answer:

some liquids can conduct electricity because they break into ions.and those liquids which don't break into ions don't conduct electricity.

for example NaCl breaks into Na+ ion and Cl- ion so it conducts electricity.

but glucose (C6H12O6) doesn't break into ions so it doesn't conduct electricity.

hope it helps....

Answer 2

Answer:

some liquid conduct electricity due to pSOME LIQUIDS CAN CONDUCT ELECTRICITY DUE TO PRESENCE OF SALT WHICH MAKES IONS IN THE LIQUIDS. THIS IS ALSO KNOWN AS ELECTROLYTES. BUT SOME LIQUIDS HAVE NEGLEGIBLE SALT THATS WHY THEY PRODUCE VERY LESS AMOUNT OF IONS THEREFORE THEY CANNOT CONDUCT ELECTRICITY...
