Question

Give appropriate scientific reason for the following:

Carbon tetrachloride does not conduct electricity

Answer 1

1. Non-electrolytes are the species that will not dissociate into respective ions.
2. And so they will not conduct electricity.
3. Carbon tetrachloride($\mathit{C}\mathit{C}{\mathit{l}}_{\mathbf{3}}$) is an example of a non-electrolyte so it will not conduct electricity.
4. Carbon tetrachloride does not conduct electricity because Carbon tetrachloride is an example of a non-electrolyte.
