Answer:
when acids are dissolved in water to make an aqueous solution of the given acid H+ ions(hydrogen ions) are formed.
Since the current is carried out by the movement of ions, an aqueous solution of acid conducts electricity as it has H+ ions.

Answer:
Acids undergo dissociation in aqueous solution to form H+ ions. When electricity is passed through an aqueous solution of an acid, the H+ ions reach the cathode and each H+ ion picks up one electron from the cathode to form H2 gas. Because of this reaction, an aqueous solution of acid conducts electricity.
