PLS ANSWER I WILL MARK U BRAINLIEST AND GIVE U THANK U
A student learns that salts like potassium chloride and sodium chloride are introduced in a weekly conducting solution. What option explains the chemical reactions that salts undergo and affect the conductivity of the solution?

a.Salts react chemically with the water particles and decrease the conductivity of the solution

b. Salts help to make the solution non-conducting by reacting with the particles of the solution

c. Salts mix with the particles of the weak conducting solution and helps to produce oxygen from the solution

d. Salts undergoes a chemical reaction with the particles of the solution and increase its conductivity

Respuesta :

Answer:

d. Salts undergoes a chemical reaction with the particles of the solution and increase its conductivity

Explanation:

Salt compounds like potassium chloride (KCl) and sodium chloride (NaCl) mentioned in this question have the ability to disintegrate into their respective ions or charged atoms when dissolved in water. For example;

NaCl (aq) → Na+ + Cl-

However, these ions (Na+ and Cl-) are responsible for the ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY of a solution. Hence, a salt compound when placed in an aqueous solution will form ions, which will conduct electricity. Hence, salinity of a solution increases its conductivity.

According to this question, salts undergoes a chemical reaction to with the particles of the solution to form ions that increase its conductivity.
