Question

What is the difference in conductivity between O.1 M NaCl and 0.1 M HgCl2

Answer 1

Did you manage to answer your other question? If so, you should be able to answer this question the exact same way.

Answer 2

? not weak or strong what?

Answer 3

ok see MgCl2 has higher conductivity than NaCl.
Always remember that the conductivity of a solution is proportional to its ion concentration.
so, MgCl2 has 3 moles of ions and NaCl only has 2 moles of ions. MgCl2

Answer 4

IDT she knows what an ion is

Answer 5

An ion is an atom or molecule in which the total number of electrons is not equal to the total number of protons, giving the atom a net positive or negative electrical charge.

Answer 6

thanks copy and paste
your own words?

Answer 7

whatever it may be..lol
thing is whether she knows that?? if she, then well and good :)

Answer 8

these concepts accrue

Answer 9

i think you can tell teh conductivity if you know the bonds.

so for NaCL, is it ionic or covalent?
and for HgCl2?

Answer 10

NaCl is ionic and HgCl2 is covalent

Answer 11

correct.
remember ionic bonds have more conductivity than covalent bonds

Answer 12

it says to explain the differnces in conductivities

Answer 13

NaCl( ionic) will have a stronger conductivity than HgCl2 ( a covlaent bond)

Answer 14

ok. its just a really basic answer

Answer 15

lol that's Hg i read it as Mg :P Crap!!!!!!!!

Answer 16

Weird, I thought you needed to quantify the difference, not explain the difference.
