Question

Water is the universal solvent and we have seen how salts, like NaCl, dissolve in water. Many other molecules dissolve in water as well: sugar is a good example. A salt solution will conduct electricity but a sugar solution will not. Let's use the sugar, sucrose, as an example that readily dissolves in water, but the solution does not conduct electricity. Compare this dissolving process of sucrose with that of NaCl to explain why one is an electrolyte and the other is not. Choose ALL that apply.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Salt (sodium chloride) is made from positive sodium ions bonded to negative chloride ions. Water can dissolve salt because the positive part of water molecules attracts the negative chloride ions and the negative part of water molecules attracts the positive sodium ions.
