Table salt conducts electricity in water, but sugar does not. Explain why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
galben [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Because sugar has no ions in the solution

Explanation:

Pure water contains very few ions, so it does not conduct electricity very well. When table salt is dissolved in water, the solution conducts very well, because the solution contains ions. When sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, because there are no ions in the solution.

In basic words the more ions in the solution there is a better chance to conduct electricity.

How many moles of carbon dioxide are produced when 23.0 g of C3H2O3 is burned during the
Mars2501 [29]

Moles of Carbon dioxide : 0.75

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

23 g C₃H₈O₃

Required

Moles of Carbon dioxide

Solution

Reaction

2C₃H₈O₃ + 7O₂ → 6CO₂ + 8H₂O

mol C₃H₈O₃ :

= mass : MW

= 23 g : 92,09382 g/mol

= 0.24975

From the equation, mol ratio of C₃H₈O₃ : 3CO₂ = 1 : 3, so mol CO₂ :

= 3/1 x mol C₃H₈O₃

= 3/1 x 0.24975

= 0.74925≈0.750 mol

If a sample of nitrogen gas (N2) contains 1.2 x 10^24 atoms of nitrogen, then about how many moles of nitrogen gas are in the sa
OLga [1]

The number of moles of nitrogen gas is  1.0 mole


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

N2 is a molecule  therefore;

1  molecule  of N₂  = 2 atoms  of N

          ? molecules= 1.2 x10 ²⁴atoms

<em>by cross  multiplication</em>

=[( 1.2  x 10²⁴ atoms x 1  molecule) / 2 atoms]  = 6 x 10²³  molecules


According to Avogadro's  law  1  mole  =6.02 x 10²³  molecules

                                                                ?  moles= 6.0 x 10²³   molecules

<em>by cross  multiplication</em>


= [(6.0x 10²³  molecules  x 1  mole) / 6.02 x10²³  molecules]  =  1.0  mole
