the following conduct electricity. (a)cao. (b)CH4. (c)C2H2. (d) C2H4
Answers
answer : (a) CaO
explanation : do you think, how does a substance produce electricity ? obviously the reason is nothing but electrons. we have already read that metals and non metals have tendency to loose and accept electrons respectively due to this they are good conductor of electricity.
now comes to the point, here all are inorganic compound except CaO. CaO is ionic compound which forms with help of transfer of electrons. that's the reason when it in aqueous state, ions (group of electrons like Ca²+, O²-) exist in free state and capable to conduct electricity.
so, the correct option is (a) CaO

Answer:
the answer is CaO
Explanation:
this is because CaO is an ionic compound and remaining are covalent compound so, when CaO will be dissolved in water then, it will dissociate into ions , these ion can move freely in water so it will conduct electricity
