Question

more ions cause conductivity to be...

select one:
a. higher
b. lower
c. zero
d. unchanged

Explanation:

Analyze the relationship between ion concentration and conductivity

Electrical conductivity in a solution is the measure of its ability to conduct an electric current. This current is carried by mobile ions.

Determine the effect of increasing ions

An increase in the concentration of free-moving ions provides more charge carriers, which directly increases the electrical conductivity of the solution.

Answer:

  • a. Higher (Correct answer)
  • b. Lower
  • c. Zero
  • d. Unchanged
