Compare the flow of the electricity trough a nickel wire and nickel sulphate solution
Dear Student,
Nickel wire also conduct electron due to presence of free electron but when electrons flow in nickel wire, wire offered resistance while in case of nickel sulphate solution, Nickel sulphate is a water soluble compound which on dissociation form Ni2 + ions and sulphate ions i.e. SO4 2 -.
As ions carry charge and conduct electricity therefore nickel sulphate solution is a good conductor of electricity.
