Why do acids and bases have a good conduction of electricity?

Chemistry
1 answer:
omeli [17]3 years ago

All acids only conduct electric current when they are dissolved in water, because when they are in an aqueous medium, they undergo ionization, i.e. release <span>ions.</span><span>

HCl --> H</span>⁺ + Cl⁻

The bases also conduct electric current in solution, because the Ionic dissociation sufferers (release the existing ions in the formula) and molecular ionization, suffer the reacting with water and releasing ions.

NaOH ---> Na⁺  + OH⁻

hope this helps!

There are two naturally occurring isotopes of bromine. 79Br has a mass of 78.9183 amu. 81Br has a mass of 80.9163 amu. Determine
Ede4ka [16]
Atomic mass of Br = 79.904 
<span>Now  lets say  y%  is abundance of 79Br. </span>
<span>Then abundance of 81Br = (100 - y) </span>
<span>mass due to 79Br = 78.9183 * y/100 = 0.789183y
</span><span>mass due to 81Br = 80.9163 x (100 - y)/100 = 0.809163(100 - y) </span>
<span>Therfore</span>
<span>0.789183y+ 0.809163(100 - y) = 79.904 </span>
<span>0.789183y + 80.9163 - 0.809163y = 79.904 </span>
<span> - 0.01998y= 79.904 - 80.9163
 = - 1.0123 </span>
<span>y = 1.0123/0.01998 = 50.67% </span>
<span> 79Br = 50.67% </span>
<span>now
 81Br = 100 - 50.67 = 49.33%
hope this helps</span>
