Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.105PAE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
If leads are attached to the opposite sides of the crystal of sodium chloride, it does not conduct electricity. Distilled water does not conduct electricity either. Yet, if the sodium chloride crystal is dissolved in distilled water, the resulting solution does conduct electricity. Use pictures at the molecular level of detail to describe why this occurs.
Concept Introduction:
When salts are dissolved in water, they form ions. Due to free motion of ions they can move in the solution thus, conduct electricity.
