Question

Here are the formulas for each substance:

  • Sucrose: C12H22O11C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}C12​H22​O11​
  • Copper (I) Chloride: CuClCuClCuCl
  • Iodine: I2I_2I2​
  • Potassium Iodide: KIKIKI

Our goal is to try to find a pattern for which compounds conduct electricity when dissolved in water, and which don't.

 

One hint is to look for patterns in which kinds of atoms form substances that conduct when dissolved, and which kinds of atoms form substances that don't conduct when dissolved.

 

Here is a periodic table you can use.

 

 

 

Let's start by finding the location on the periodic table for the atoms for substances that conduct when dissolved. What do you notice about where the atoms are?
