It has been observed that gaseous HCl is very poor conductor of electricity. But a solutions of HCl in water is a good conductor. This is due to the reason that

A

Water is good conductor of electricity

B

Hydrogen chloride gas in water solution ionizes

C

A gas is non-conductor but a liquid conducts electricity

D

Gas does not obey Ohm's law whereas solution does

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
