CONDUCTIVITY IN WATER

Question

Rank the following 0.7 M solutions in order of increasing conductivity in water. .  C6H12O6, (glucose), Ki, Hi, HC2H3O2

Answer 1

C6 H12O6 (glucose) being a non electrolyte will not conduct electricity.

 KI, being a salt is a strong electrolyte and will conduct current

HI is also a strong electrolyte and will conduct current

HC2H3O is a weak electrolyte and will conduct current less than previous options.

The solution that will conduct in increasing conductivity are KI = HI > HC2H3O2 > C6H12O6
