Compounds such as glucose and alcohol also contains hydrogen but are not categorize as an acid Describe an activity to prove it​

Answer 1

Answer:

Describe an activity to prove it. Ans. Alcohols and glucose though contain hydrogen but do not ionise in the solution to produce H+ ions. This is proved by the fact that there solutions do not conduct electricity.

Answer 2

$\huge \gg \: \tt { \pmb{ \purple{EXPLAINATIO N}}}$

• We know that ,in acid H+ ions completely ionize in water so that they conduct electricity.
• While compounds like alcohols and glucose partially ionises into the water.
• That why Alcohol & Glucose are not considered as acids.

• Take 3 Beakers
• Name The Beakers as A , B & C
• Take HCL in beaker A , alcohol in beaker B & glucose in beaker C
• Make a electric circuit. Connect the wire with 3 beakers.
• Beaker, in which, the bulb glows, that Beaker contain acid because acids complete disassociates into water to form H+ & OH- ions which conducts electricity.
• This activity prove that the electricity passes through completely ionised liquids are acids.
