Answer 1

Answer:

Caps containing hydrochloric acid and caustic soda conduct electricity.

Cap containing sugar will not conduct electricity.

Explanation:

i) Caps containing hydrochloric acid and caustic soda conduct electricity.

Reason:

Solutions like hydrochloric acid and caustic soda dissolves into ions ( H+, Na+, OH- and Cl-) and ions can move freely in the solutions.

ii) Cap containing sugar will not conduct electricity.

Reason:

Sugar, while dissolving in water, appears to be converted into ions, but they do not. They will remain as sugar molecules itself in the solution.
