Electrolysis quiz Loading... 1. Why do covalent compounds (e.g H₂O) not conduct electricity?There is a sea of delocalised electrons that are free to moveThere are weak intermolecular forces that require little energy to breakThere are charged particles that are free to moveThere are no charged particles that are free to moveQuestion 1 of 11 Loading... 2. Do ionic substances conduct electricity?Only when moltenNot when solid, but they do when either molten or in solutionYes, ionic substances always conduct electricityNo, ionic substances never conduct electricityQuestion 2 of 11 Loading... 3. A substance is found not to conduct electricity even when molten. What type of bonding does the substance have?CovalentCovalent or ionicMetallicIonicQuestion 3 of 11 Loading... 4. Why do ionic compounds conduct electricity only when molten or in solution?When solid the ions are held in place. When molten or in solution the ions are free to moveWhen solid the ions are arranged regularly. When molten or in solution the ions are arranged irregularlyWhen solid the ions are free to move. When molten or in solution the ions are held in placeWhen solid the electrons are held in place. When molten or in solution the electrons are free to moveQuestion 4 of 11 Loading... 5. Suggest why a small amount of dilute acid is added to water before it is electrolysedto increase electrical conductivityto remove an oxide coating from the electrodesto lower the pHto slow down the rate of electrolysisQuestion 5 of 11 Loading... 6. In aluminium extraction, what is the ionic half-equation for the reaction at the negative electrode?Al³⁺ + 3e⁻ → AlAl²⁺ + 2e⁻ → AlAl²⁺ → Al + 2e⁻ Al³⁺ → Al + 3e⁻Question 6 of 11 Loading... 7.
