Answer
Potential reasons for the bulb not glowing include:
- The bulb might be defective or fused or the battery might be dead.
- If the bulb and battery are replaced and the bulb still fails to light up, it suggests there could be issues with the connectivity, such as loose or faulty connections.
- If after checking and fixing the connections, the bulb still doesn't glow, it means that the solution in the setup doesn't let electricity pass through.

When the free ends of a tester are dipped into a solution, the magnetic needle shows deflection. Can you explain the reason?
Name three liquids, which when tested in the manner shown in Fig.11.9, may cause the magnetic needle to deflect.

A tester is used to check the conduction of electricity through two liquids, labelled A and B. It is found that the bulb of the tester glows brightly for liquid A, while it glows very dimly for liquid B. You would conclude that
- liquid A is a better conductor than liquid B.
- liquid B is a better conductor than liquid A.
- both liquids are equally conducting.
- conducting properties of liquid cannot be compared in this manner.
