Why conduction is slower in a gas than in a liquid or solid.

Consider the reduction reactions and their equilibrium constants. cu+(aq)+e−↽−−⇀cu(s)pb2+(aq)+2e−↽−−⇀ pb(s)fe3+(aq)+3e−↽−−⇀fe(=6.2×108=4. 0×10−5=9.3×10−3 cu + ( aq ) + e − ↽ − − ⇀ cu ( s ) k =6.2× 10 8 pb 2 + ( aq ) +2 e − ↽ − − ⇀ pb ( s ) k =4.0× 10 − 5 fe 3 + ( aq ) +3 e − ↽ − − ⇀ fe ( s ) k =9.3× 10 − 3 arrange these ions from strongest to weakest oxidizing agent.

Many ionic compounds and a few highly polar covalent compounds are because they completely ionize in water to create a solution filled with charged ions that can conduct an electric current.

You open a can of soda at room temperature and hear a hiss. which of the following factors has changed inside the container? a.) atmospheric pressure b.) temperature of gas c.) type of gas d.) amount of gas
