A white crystalline salt conducts electricity when it is melted and when it dissolves in water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
sergeinik [125]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Ionic salts are defined as the salts which tend to contain ionic bonds as there occurs transfer of electrons between its combining atoms.

So, when an ionic salt melts or it is dissolved in water then it will dissociate into its respective ions and as electricity is the flow of electrons or ions. Hence, this salt is then able to conduct electricity.

As covalent compounds are insoluble in water so, they do no dissociate into ions. Hence, they do not conduct electricity.

Similarly, metallic and network solids do not dissociate into ions either when melted or dissolved in water. Therefore, they also do not conduct electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that when a white crystalline salt conducts electricity when it is melted and when it dissolves in water then this bond is of ionic type.

What is the <br> Electronegativity of sugar
lyudmila [28]

Answer:In order for a molecule to have polarity it must have an electronegativity difference of 0.5-1.7. There is polarity within sucrose because of oxygen-hydrogen and oxygen-carbon. Oxygen-hydrogen is polar because a electronegativity of 1.2 is created (O=3.4 H=2.2-----> 3.4-2.2=1.2); this is a polar molecule.

Which examples are indirect evidence used to study Earth's interior? Check all that apply.
ch4aika [34]

<u>Answer</u>:

Indirect evidence used to study Earth's interior are

  • analysis of several seismographs  
  • location of an earthquake's epicentre  
  • identification of seismic wave direction

<u>Explanation</u>:

The earth is mainly divided into 3 layers. These are the crust, mantle and the core. Further, the interior part of the earth cannot be studied directly and the direct evidence explains the composition of rocks.

The seismic waves help with the understanding of indirect evidence. The seismic waves are the energy that travels through different layers of the earth.It is caused due to  volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides etc. Thus, analysis of several seismographs, identifying the direction the of seismic wave and location of earth’s epicentre helps to study earth's interior.
