Which of the following will have the highest electrical conductance? A) 0.1 M NaCl B) 0.2 M NaCl C) 0.3 M CH₃COOH D) 0.4 M CH₃COOH

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Electrical conductance depends on the concentration of ions in solution. NaCl dissociates completely in water, producing Na+ and Cl- ions, which both contribute to the conductance. CH₃COOH, on the other hand, is a molecule and must undergo significant ionization to contribute to the conductance. Therefore, the higher concentration of NaCl in option B will produce the highest electrical conductance.
