What else can I help you with?
Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Is barium chloride conductive?
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Is sodium azide a good conductor of electricity?
Not in it's usual solid state. But sodium chloride will conduct electricity of molten or dissolved in water.
Is Mercury electric?
Liquid mercury can conduct electricity, it's what makes mercury thermostats work. As for solid mercury, it conducts electricity in solid phase as all metals do.
Does liquid naphthalene conduct electricity?
Naphthalene is a Ionic Substance. Hence, Ionic substance do not conduct when solid. But they do conduct when melted or dissolved in water - and they decompose at the same time. Therefor molten Naphthalene conduts electricity as the ions become free to move when dissolved in water.
Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Does potassuim hydroxide conduct electricity?
Not in its standard solid state. But it will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Which metals conduct electricity when in solid?
Zinc and other metals
How do ionic compounds conduct?
Do_ionic_compounds_conduct_electricitycompounds conduct electricity when they are either dissolved in water of they are molten. If they remain a solid then they will not conduct electricity
Does calcium choride conduct electricity when a solid?
No, calcium chloride does not conduct electricity when it is in solid form. It can only conduct electricity when dissolved in water or when in a molten state.
Why do compounds not conduct electricity when solid but can when molten?
In the solid state, compounds have fixed positions and cannot conduct electricity because their electrons are not free to move. When the compound is molten, the ions or electrons are free to move, allowing for the flow of electricity.
Can molten lead conduct electricity?
Not all but many of the substances conduct electricity in the molten form. Those substances which are insulators do not conduct electricity in any state, but subs. like ionic compounds start conducting electricity in the molten state.
Is iodine solid a conductor?
No, solid iodine is not a conductor of electricity because it is a non-metal. Non-metals typically do not conduct electricity well.
Why does NaCl conduct when molten but not when solid?
NaCl conducts electricity when molten because the ions are free to move and carry an electric current. In the solid state, the ions are locked in a fixed position and cannot move to conduct electricity.
Is barium chloride conductive?
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Why potassium iodide can conduct electricity in the molten state but not in solid state?
Potassium Bromide or KBr is not able to conduct electricity in solid state. It is an ionic compound and its ions are not free to move in the solid state, hence they are not able to conduct electricity. But when they are in aqueous state, they are free to move and thus become able to conduct electricity.
Can MgSO4 conduct electricity?
When molten or dissolved in water it can but in its standard, solid state it cannot.
