प्रश्न
Give appropriate scientific reasons for the following statement :
The electrical conductivity of acetic acid is less in comparision to the electrical conductivity of dilute sulphuric acid at a given concentration.
उत्तर
Acetic acid is a weak acid and has fewer ions, so conductivity is less, whereas dilute sulphuric acid is a strong acid and has more ions, and therefore, its electrical conductivity is more.
