Based on the properties of sugar, you would check the following responses:
-
Covalent substance: Sugar (sucrose) is a covalent compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms bonded together through covalent bonds.
-
Substance that does not conduct electricity: Sugars do not dissociate into ions in solution, so they do not conduct electricity.
You would not check:
- Substance that breaks apart into ions: This is characteristic of ionic substances.
- Ionic substance: This refers to compounds that contain ions and typically conduct electricity in solution, which does not apply to sugar.
So, the final checks would be:
- Covalent substance
- Substance that does not conduct electricity
