Identify the acid which matches the following description :
The elecbical conductivity of acetic acid is less in comparison to the electrical conductivity of dilute sulphuric acid at a given concentration

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

This is because acetic acid being a weak acid partially dissociates and produces less ions in solution whereas sulphuric acid being a strong acid completely dissociates and produces more free ions in solution. Hence, conduction of electric current in acetic acid is less as compared to dil. `H_(2)SO_(4)` at given concentration.
