Why do ionic compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
4 0
Conductive when liquid - ions are charged particles, but ionic compounds can only conduct electricity if their ions are free to move. So ionic compounds do not conduct electricity when they are solid, but they do conduct electricity when they are dissolved in water or when they are melted.

galben [10]

Answer:

The answer is "7.90 \ g".

Explanation:

Please finds the complete question in the attached file.

Volume = 10.0 \ mL \\\\Density =0.79 g\  cm^3

\text{Density}=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass = Density \times Volume

         =(0.790 g\ cm^3) \times 10.0 \ mL\\\\=7.90 \ g

The mass of acetone to be weighed is 7.90 \ g

dalvyx [7]
The stoichiometry of the reaction gives the molar ratio in which the reactants react with each other and the ratio in which products are formed.
The coefficients of the reactants in the reaction follow the stoichiometry 
the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
2C₃H₆(g) + 9O₂(g)  ---> 6CO₂(g) + 6H₂O(l)

A sample of salt (sodium chloride) is placed on the tip of a platinum wire. When the sample is heated on blue flame the flame tu
gulaghasi [49]
So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow. 
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.
