The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "All liquids are non-conductor of electricity except," we need to identify which liquid among the options provided is a conductor of electricity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Conductors and Non-Conductors**: - Conductors are materials that allow electric current to flow through them. - Non-conductors (or insulators) do not allow electric current to flow. 2. **Analyzing the Statement**: - The statement mentions that all liquids are non-conductors of electricity except for one. This implies that there is at least one liquid that can conduct electricity. 3. **Identifying Conductive Liquids**: - Common examples of conductive liquids include: - Saltwater (due to dissolved ions) - Acids (like hydrochloric acid) - Bases (like sodium hydroxide) - Mercury (a metal that is liquid at room temperature) 4. **Selecting the Correct Option**: - Among the options provided, we need to find the liquid that is known to conduct electricity. - From our analysis, we know that mercury is a liquid metal and is a good conductor of electricity. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct answer to the question is **Mercury**. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is **Mercury**.
