Given the compounds listed below
CH4
CuSO4
C6H6
C6H12O6
[tex]\underline{\underline{\large{\green{\cal{REQUIRED:}}}}}[/tex]
Which compound will conduct electricity when it is dissolved in water?
[tex]\underline{\underline{\large{\green{\cal{EXPLANATION:}}}}}[/tex]
The compound that will conduct electricity when dissolved in water is CuSO4 (copper sulfate).
Reason:
CuSO4 (copper sulfate): When dissolved in water, copper sulfate dissociates into copper ions (Cu²⁺) and sulfate ions (SO₄²⁻). These ions are move in solution and carry electric current, making CuSO4 an electrolyte. ✓
The other compounds do not conduct electricity when dissolved in water for the following reasons:

The other compounds do not conduct electricity when dissolved in water for the following reasons:
CH4 (methane): Methane is a nonpolar molecule and does not ionize in water.
C6H6 (benzene): Benzene is also nonpolar molecule and does not ionize in water. It does not conduct electricity.
C6H12O6 (glucose): Glucose is not ionize in water. It is a polar molecule that does not ionize in water

[tex]\bold{CuSO_4}[/tex] will conduct electricity when it is dissolved in water.
Copper (II) sulfate is an ionic compound, so it can easily dissolve in water. When it is dissolved in water, it separates into its ions which are:
The ions can easily move in the aqueous solution. This movement of ions is what allows the solution to conduct electricity, as the ions carry electrical charge through the solution.
