Sugar (sucrose) is a material that dissolves in water but does not conduct electric current. Sugar molecules do not ionize in water, so the solution does not carry electric charge.
Yes, molten sugar can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions and charged particles within the liquid that can carry an electric current. However, sugar is not a highly conductive material compared to metals or electrolytes.
Because although sugar dissolves in water, it does not produce ions in solution. Electric current travels through solution by hopping from cation to cation and since sugar produces no cations (or ions of any sort) in solution, the current cannot travel through the solution. Therefore, the solution as a whole does not conduct electricity
Salt (NaCl) is an ionic compound, while sugar (sucrose) is a covalent compound. Because of the way NaCl dissolves in water, it has free roaming electrons that will interact freely with an electric current and can therefore transfer it throughout the solution. Conversely, sucrose molecules are covalently bonded and their electrons are "tied" to each other, preventing them from interacting with an electric current, consequently making a sucrose solution non conductive.
A salt solution will conduct electrical current because it dissociates into ions in water, creating a pathway for electricity to flow. Sugar does not dissociate into ions in water, so it does not conduct electricity.

Yes, it will conduct electric current much better than plain water. The sugar molecules in water form a clear solution by ionization facilitating the path of electrons of electric current.
Potassium hydroxide will conduct electric current when dissolved in water due to the presence of ions that allow the flow of electricity. Aluminum foil will not conduct electricity in water as it is a metal and does not dissolve into ions. Sugar is a non-electrolyte and will not conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
Sugar is a compound that dissolves in water but does not conduct electricity. When sugar dissolves in water, it forms a solution, but it does not dissociate into ions that can carry an electric current.
Potassium hydroxide dissolved in water will conduct electric current because it forms ions in solution that allow for the flow of electricity. Aluminum foil, being a metal, is also a good conductor of electricity due to its free-moving electrons. Sugar, a non-electrolyte, will not conduct electric current as it does not dissociate into ions in solution.
No, sugar does not conduct electricity because it does not contain free ions or charged particles that can carry electrical current. Sugar is a covalent compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, which do not readily transfer or conduct electric charge.
Yes, molten sugar can conduct electricity due to the presence of free ions and charged particles within the liquid that can carry an electric current. However, sugar is not a highly conductive material compared to metals or electrolytes.
No, sugar in solid form does not conduct electricity because it does not contain free ions or electrons to facilitate the flow of electric current. Sugar is a non-electrolyte, meaning it does not ionize in water to produce charged particles needed for conducting electricity.
Sodium chloride dissociates into ions (sodium and chloride ions) in solution, which can carry an electric current. Sugar does not dissociate into ions in solution, so it cannot carry an electric current. Sugar molecules do not have charged particles that can move to conduct electricity, unlike the ions in sodium chloride solution.
Aluminum foil will conduct electric current as it is a metal. Potassium hydroxide dissolved in water will also conduct electricity as it forms an electrolyte solution. Sugar will not conduct electricity as it does not contain ions necessary for the flow of electric current.
First of all, this is a stupid question I mean are you in 1st Grade? But yes salt conducts electricity much better than sugar.
