Answer. Bulb will glow because being a strong base furnishes and ions (which are responsible for electrical conductivity).

Home brew electricity! Produce electricity from vinegar, which acts as the electrolyte! Electricity is generated by reaction of the two different metals (the electrodes) with the vinegar (the electrolyte). So you can just place two different kinds of metal in a conducting solution and that’s it, you get a battery!

In a disposable cup or film canister, place one zinc-coated (galvanized) nail and one strip of copper wire. These are the electrodes. Fill the cup with vinegar (this is your electrolyte), so that the electrodes are submerged. Make sure the nail and copper wires are not touching.

Sodium chloride is a soluble salt that is known as a strong electrolyte, as it creates a concentrated solution of electrically charged ions. The solutions of sodium hydroxide, a strong base, and sulfuric acid, a strong acid, complete the circuit, allowing the bulb to glow brightly.

Salt water is made up of sodium chloride and water. Since an ion has an electrical charge, it can carry electricity through water. If a circuit is created with an electricity source and a light bulb, it is possible to light the bulb using the salt water as a conductor.

If you increase the amount of salt in the saltwater solution, the light bulb becomes brighter.)

bulb will not glow in sugar solution,kerosene,and distilled water.it will glow in rest of the solutions.

Using tap water, you should be able to complete the circuit and the LED bulb lights up. Using distilled water, however, does not complete the circuit and the LED bulb should not light up. However, if yours does, that means the “distilled water” used is not pureenough.

Sugar is an organic compound which does does not decompose or produces any charges in the water solution so due to absence of any charge particles in the solution there is no conduction of electricity hence bulb will not glow.
