Question

why doee an aqueous solution of an acid conduct electricity ?​

Answer 1

hey mate...

here is your answer...

An aqueous solution of an acid conducts electricity because in water, an acid (HCl) dissociates to give ions. Since, the current is carried out by the movement of ions, an aqueous solution of acid conducts electricity.

The aqueous solution of an acid conduct electricity because the acid solution have ions and the movement of these ions in solution helps for flow of electricity current through the solution.And the ions are H+ ions.

hope it helps...

Answer 2

Hey mate !!

when acid is dissolved in water it produces OH ions. In which H ions are the cause which conduct electricity throughout the Solution.
