Do liquids also conduct electricity ?

Open in App

Solution

Some liquids such as oil or alcohol do not form ions and do not conduct electricity. Vinegar is mostly water with a small amount of acetic acid in it. The acetic acid separates into ions on so that the solution conducts electricity. Tap water may or may not conduct electricity depending on its hardness.
