Tap water is a good conductor of electricity because it contains some ions in it such as iron oxide, manganese oxide, magnesium oxide, fluorine oxide etc. And the movements of â¦ these ions is what causes electricity to flow. Thus, making tap water a weak electrolyte and a good conductor.
The chelate effect describes the enhanced affinity of chelating ligands for a metal ion compared to the affinity of a collection of similar nonchelating (monodentate) ligands for the same metal.n equation (1) there are two particles on the left and one on the right, whereas in equation (2) there are three particles on the left and one on the right. This difference means that less entropy of disorder is lost when the chelate complex is formed than when the complex with monodentate ligands is formed.
The Bottom Line. Chelation therapy is a treatment for heavy metal poisoning: iron, mercury, arsenic, and lead. Some people give chelation therapy for other conditions such as cardiovascular disease, autism, and Alzheimer's. This exposes patients to risks without benefit.helation therapy as a treatment for autism is based on the erroneous belief that mercury in childhood vaccines is a cause of autism. This belief arose when it was noted that 1) the number of cases of autism was growing and 2) the number of recommended childhood vaccines was increasing.
