प्रश्न
Most liquids that conduct electricity are solutions of ________, _______ and ________.
उत्तर
Most liquids that conduct electricity are solutions of acids, bases and salts.
Explanation:
Because these substances dissociate into ions when water dissolves, the free-moving ions allow electric current to pass through the liquid, making it a good conductor of electricity. This property is commonly observed in hydrochloric acid, sodium hydroxide, and sodium chloride.
