They need to be free ions to have mobility to carry a charge and to conduct (so electricity can flow through). This is only possible in solution or in the molten state. It is possible to have an electrolyte in gas form under extreme conditions.

Is BaS an electrolyte?
yes in molten form
Can Na CI be a electrolyte?
There is no such thing as NaCI. You most likely mean NaCl (with a lowercase L) which is an electrolyte.
Why is molten sodium acetate a strong electrolyte?
Molten sodium acetateis dissociated. Sodium acetate is formed from a strong base and a weak acid.
What is chemical name for cryolite?
Cryolite, a natural mineral (Na3AlF6) is a trisodium hexafluoroaluminate.
Which is strong electrolyte potassium chloride or calcium chloride?
Both potassium chloride and calcium chloride are strong electrolytes when dissolved in water or when molten.
Why does an electrolyte contain cryolite?
Molten cryolite is the electrolyte, an ionic compoud..
How is the electrolyte of aluminium oxide and cryolite kept molten?
electrical heating :D
Why is cryolite used in the manufacture of aluminium?
It's used as a flux. It melts at a significantly lower temperature than aluminum oxide ores, but they will dissolve in molten cryolite. This means less energy is required to extract the aluminum from the ores than if they had to be heated to their melting temperatures.
How adding molten cryolite reduces the cost of the process by reducing the the energy demand?
by the process of crucification
Is BaS an electrolyte?
yes in molten form
What type of electrolyte is sodium chloride?
In water solution or in molten state NaCl is a strong electrolyte.
Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity but in molten state conduts electricity readily.Why?
Melted sodium chloride is an electrolyte containing the cation Na+and the anion Cl-.
Why can molten ionic crystal act as an electrolyte?
Because when an ionic substance is molten its ions are free to move around.
Can Na CI be a electrolyte?
