Which of the following is true about glacial ethanoic acid?
|
|
It contains free mobile ions
|
|
|
It turns dry blue litmus paper red
|
|
|
It has a molecular formula of HCOOH.
|
|
|
It is unable to conduct electricity
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -It is a weak electrolyte hence does not produce many ions on dissociation. So, it does not conduct electricity.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glacial acetic acid does not dissociate enough to be able to conduct electricity.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ethanoic acid in water Electricity is also conducted by the aqueous solution because of the presence of freely moving ions in the solution. On the other hand, glacial ethanoic acid cannot conduct electricity because of the presence of covalent molecules in it.
Detailed explanation-4: -Description: Glacial acetic acid does not conduct electricity.
