Sulfuric Acid had the highest conduction of electricity because, it has a certain amount of charged particles allowing it to transfer from the water. it has a high molarity which means it has more ions, allowing the electrons to flow, and conducting more electricity. Only ionic compounds can conduct electricity because the dissociated ions an ionic compound/solution creates when put in an aqueous solution are able to carry a charge through the solution. Molecular compounds do not dissociate their ions and therefore do not conduct electricity in a solution. This is true because when in a solid ions are stationary and not able to move (are able to wiggle). When in a liquid (aqueous solution) the ions are free to move resulting in the transfer …show more content…
Acids are the ones that ionize in a solution. Acids are solutions that ionize in an aqueous solution to produce hydrogen (H+). Bases dissociate in an aqueous solution to produce hydroxide ions (OH-). Weak electrolytes are the opposite of strong electrolytes in that they only conduct a small amount of current and only slightly ionize or dissociate in a solution. An example of a strong acid would be Hydrochloric Acid (HCl). A strong base could be Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH). A weak acid would be any organic type of acid like Acetic Acid (vinegar/C2H4O2) or Citric Acid (C6H8O7). And a weak base could be Ammonia (NH3). An important thing to remember is that there is a difference between Covalent and Ionic bonds. Ionic bonds are made by the atoms bonding together by the attraction between oppositely charged ions. An example of this would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl). Covalent bonds are made by the atoms bound to each other by shared electrons. When the electrons are shared equally between the atoms in a covalent bond, it is said that the bond is nonpolar. A more likely situation would be when an electron is more attracted to one atom than to another, this forms a polar covalent
