Interpretation : To compare the conductivity of the given solution.
Concept Introduction: Conductivity is defined as the ability of an electrolyte or a solute to conduct electricity. Not all the solutions need to conduct electricity as all the solutions are not electrolytes. Therefore, only the solutions which can dissociate can participate in conduction.
Answer to Problem 7STP
Explanation of Solution
The dissociation of
Similarly, when the dissociation of
Since the ions are doubled in case of
When there are a greater number of free electrons, then the conductivity will be good. The conductivity is purely based on the number of ions that are present in the solution. When there are no ions in the solution, the conductivity will be nil.
