Question

Why solution of sugarcane does not conduct electricity?

Answer 1

Sugarcane:

1. It is a covalent compound having the chemical formula ${\mathrm{C}}_{12}{\mathrm{H}}_{22}{\mathrm{O}}_{11}$.
2. Because of the covalent bond, it does not have any ions or dissociates into ions.
3. So, in absence of ions, a compound cannot conduct electricity.
