Question

why ethanol and glucose solution do not conduct electricity even though they contain hydrogen​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When ethanol and glucose dissolve in water they do not release hydrogen ions. But for conduction of electricity, the solution must have free ions present, but in case of ethanol and glucose no free ions are there, so only presence of H is not sufficient but presence of H⁺ i.e. free ion is required to conduct electricity.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Because when they dissolve in water they do not release hydrogen ions. and for conduction of electricity, solution must have free ions present,

and in case of ethanol and glucose no free ions are present, so only presence of H is not sufficient but presence of H+.i.e free ions is sufficient to conduct electricity. thank you I think it will helps you
