Covalent compounds do not conduct electric current in a water solution well because they do not dissociate into ions.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as a compound formed due to sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

As we know that like dissolves like. So, when a covalent compound is added to water then it will not dissociate into ions. Hence, it will not dissolve due to which it will not conduct electricity.

Since, we know that electricity is the flow of ions or electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that covalent compounds do not conduct electric current in a water solution well because they do not dissociate into ions.

13. An aerosol spray can of deodorant with a volume of 0.410 L contains 3.0 g of propane gas (CH3) as propellant. What is the pr

qaws [65]

Answer: The pressure in the can is 4.0 atm

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

P = pressure of gas = ?

V = Volume of gas = 0.410 L

n = number of moles = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{3.0g}{44.1g/mol}=0.068mol$

R = gas constant = $0.0821Latm/Kmol$

T =temperature = $20^0C=(20+273)K=293K$

$P=\frac{nRT}{V}$

$P=\frac0.068mol\times 0.0820 L atm/K mol\times 293K}{0.410L}=4.0atm$

Thus the pressure in the can is 4.0 atm
