Would a sweet pickle conduct as much electricity as a dill pickle?
Q. Would a sweet pickle do the same, or would it react differently? This is for a science project :) I know that if you electricute a dill pickle it'll glow yellowy orange because of the salt. thank you :]

Help on this pickle experiment?
Q. If you put 120 volts of electricity through a pickle, the pickle will smoke and start glowing an orange-yellow color. The light is emitted because sodium ions in the pickle become excited; their return to ground state results in light emissions. The frequency is 5.09*10^14s^-1 1) What is the energy of 0.10 mole of these photons? 2)Calculate the energy gap between the excited and the ground state for the sodium ions 3)If you soaked the pickle for a long time in a different salt solution such as strontium chloride, would you still observe 589nm light emission? Why or why not? Please HELP!!!
