Answer is: C.) If the solid is conductive, the bonds are metallic.

1) Substances with ionic bond conduct an electric current in liquid, but not in solid state, because in liquids ions are mobile, contrary to solids where ions are fixed.

2) Substances with covalent bond not conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they not have free ions or electrons.

3) Substances with metallic  bond conduct an electric current in liquid and solid state, because they have mobile electrons. Most metals have strong metallic bond, because strong electrostatic attractive force between valence electrons (metals usually have low ionization energy and lose electrons easy) and positively charged metal ions.

When the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solu
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The unknown solution had the higher concentration.

Explanation:

When two solutions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane, depending on the concentration gradient between the two solutions, there is a tendency for water molecules to move across the semi-permeable in order to establish an equilibrium concentration between the two solutions. This movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane in response to a concentration gradient is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules moves from a region of lower solute concentration or higher water molecules concentration to a region of higher solute concentration or lower water molecules concentration until equilibrium concentration is attained.

Based on the observation that when the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solution level rises, it means that water molecules have passed from the glucose solution through the semipermeable membrane into the unknown solution. Therefore, the solution has a higher solute concentration than the glucose solution.
