Follow-up Question

Shouldn't the water and sucrose produce dipole-dipole intermolecular forces? Based on our experiment, the solution of water and sucrose conducted electricity as evidenced by the light that was seen on a light bulb. However, it took a few seconds to light and the light was not very bright. What could be the cause of this conduction if covalent bonds cannot conduct electricity?
