Give reasons for the following:
Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in solid state.

Ionic compounds are bad conductors of electricity in the solid state.

Ionic compounds conduct electricity only in solution.

Why do carbon compounds not conduct electricity ?

How will your demonstrate that the ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in the solid state and can do so in solution.

Read the following information about ionic compound- (i) For formation of ionic compound ionisation potential of metal should be high. (ii) Ionic bond has non directional nature. (iii) For completeion of octetionic bond can represent as a coordinate bond. (iv) Ionic compound does not conduct electricity in solid state but conduct electricity in molten state. (v) During the solubility of ionic compound if lattice energy gt Hydration energy then compound is insoluble in water. The statements which are correct is:

Give reasons for the following (a) CO_(2) has no dipole moment but SO_(2) and H_(2)O have considerable dipole moments (b) Carbon has two unpaired electrons in the outermost orbit, but it is tetravalent in organic compound (c ) CaF_(2) is more ionic than CaI_(2) (d )Sigma bonds are stronger than pi bonds (e) C_(2)H_(4) is planar while C_(2)H_(2 is linear (f) H_(2)O is more polar than H_(2)S (g) Ionic compounds do not canduct electricity in solid state, but they conduct electricity in solution or in molten state .

Do the covalent compounds conduct electricity ?

(a) Show the formation of magnesium chloride and sodium chloride by transfer of electrons. (b) Identify the ions present in these compounds. (c) Why do ionic compounds not conduct electricity in the solid state?

Explain the following: (a) Sodium chloride is an ionic compound which does not conduct electricity in solid state whereas it does conduct electricity in molten state as well as in aqueous solution. (b) Reactivity of aluminium decrease if it is dipped in nitric acid. (c) Metals like calcium and magnesium are never found in their free state in nature.
