3. Do distilled water conduct electricity? What will happen if we add sugar to it and
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

It cannot conduct electricity, however adding salt or sugar will make the water have impurities/other substance making it easier to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Distilled water by itself does not contain impurities, thus, it cannot <em>conduct </em>electricity.

When you put salt in water, the water molecules pull the sodium and chlorine ions apart so they are floating freely, increasing the conductivity.

For more information, please refer to the internet :D

Have fun studying, and goodluck!

Which of the following is considered a drawback to using wind energy as a source of power?
Olin [163]

Answer:

Option (3)

Explanation:

Wind energy is directly derived from the wind. In the places where wind blowing is quite frequent, there wind mills are being set up, and the turbines in it rotates due to the prevailing wind. Due to this continuous motion of turbines, it collects the wind energy and it is being transferred into electrical energy.

It is cost-effective and does not produce any kind of pollution and is completely a renewable energy, that it can generated again and again.

It does have certain drawbacks also, because <u>the area may sometime do not experience constant wind, due to which it cannot store energy. So frequent wind blowing areas are the best place to set up windmills</u>.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3)

Which of the following is NOT a physical change?
andrey2020 [161]
Your answer is the last option, the explosion of fireworks. This is because all of the other options are physical changes because they don't change the substance, they only affect it in some way. However the explosion of a firework clearly changes a substance inside the initial 'rocket' into fireworks.

I hope this helps!
