Q73 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 2) · Chemistry

Aqueous solution of which of the following compounds is the best conductor of electric current?

A
Acetic acid, $C_{2} H_{4} O_{2}$
Correct answer
B
Hydrochloric acid, HCl
C
Ammonia, $N H_{3}$
D
Fructose, $C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}$

Solution

Aqueous solution of HCl is the best conductor of electric current because HCl is strong acid, so it dissociates completely into ions.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
