Covalent compounds do not conduct electric current in a water solution well because they do not dissociate into ions.
mariarad [96]3 years ago
4 0

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.

What mass of sodium sulfate is needed to make 2.5 L of 2.0 M solution?
Serjik [45]
D) 710 g

Step by Step:
Multiply 2.5 L by 2.0 M to solve for moles
2 mol/L • 2.5 L= 5 mol

Find formula weight of sodium sulfate

Na2SO4-142.04 g/mol

Na- 2(22.99)=45.98
S-32.06
O-4(16)=64

Multiply miles by formula weight

5 mole • 142.04 g/mol=710.2 g
