Question

Which of the following compounds can be called as non-electrolytes?

• A. $C_6{H}_{12}{O}_6$
• B. $C_2{H}_{5}OH$
• C. $C_2{H}_6$
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

All of the above

$C_6{H}_{12}{O}_6$ that is Glucose when dissolved in water does not dissociate into ions at all and hence glucose is a non-electrolyte.

$C_2{H}_{5}OH$ that is Ethyl alcohol when dissolved in water does not dissociate into ions too. Hence Ethyl alcohol is a non-electrolyte.

Similarly, Ethane that is $C_2{H}_6$ does not dissociate into ions when dissolved in water. Thus Ethane is also a non-electrolyte.

So, option D is correct.
