Question

An electrolytic cell is taken with two graphite rods inserted in it and connected to opposite terminals of a battery. An electric bulb is also introduced on the circuit. Different substances are taken in the cell and the conductivity is tested. Identify the case where the bulb glows most brilliantly.
  1. Kerosene oil
  2. Molten lead bromide
  3. Molten wax
  4. Barium sulphate in water

A
Molten wax
B
Kerosene oil
C
Barium sulphate in water
D
Molten lead bromide
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Molten lead broimide is the best conductor among molten wax, kerosene oil and barium sulphate in water. Molten salts are fully ionized and diluted salts contain some unionized molecules also.

Three different electrolytic cells A, B, and C are connected in separate circuits. Electrolytic cell A contains sodium chloride solution. When the circuit is completed a bulb in the circuit glows brightly. Electrolytic cell B contains acetic acid solution and in this case the bulb in the circuit glows dimly. The electrolytic cell C contains sugar solution and the bulb does not glow. Give a reason for each of these observations.
