Aqueous solutions of acids conduct electricity because of free moving:
(a) Molecules
(b) Ions
(c) Electrons
(d) All of these

Asked by muhammad741

Answer (2)

Aqueous solutions of acids conduct electricity primarily due to the presence of free-moving ions , which are the dissociated forms of the acid in solution. While molecules and electrons play roles in other contexts, they are not the main contributors to conductivity in acid solutions. Therefore, the correct answer is (b) ions . ;
