Almost all of them if not all of them. Off hand I can not think of any metal that does not conduct electricity in the solid phase, I'm a little unsure about the liquid phase but I do beliece that the resistnce is still fairly low.

∙ 13y agoTheir nuclei are surounded by a sea of free floating electrons.since metallic bonds are due to electrostatic forces of attraction between between the negatively charged electrons and +vely charged nuclei, all their valence electrons become delocalised.unlike ionic compounds where ions are in fixed state in solid state in metals the delocalised electrons are mobile both in solid and molten form.
Common metals such as copper, silver, gold, and aluminum conduct electricity when solid and molten. These metals have delocalized electrons that can move freely to carry an electric current.
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Not in it's usual solid state. But sodium chloride will conduct electricity of molten or dissolved in water.
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.
Calcium can conduct electricity in both its solid and molten state because it has mobile charge carriers. In its solid state, calcium atoms are arranged in a lattice structure and the movement of electrons within the lattice allows for electrical conductivity. In its molten state, the calcium ions are free to move throughout the liquid, facilitating the flow of electric current.
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Not in its standard solid state. But it will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
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
Zinc and other metals
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.
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.
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.
No, solid iodine is not a conductor of electricity because it is a non-metal. Non-metals typically do not conduct electricity well.
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.
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
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.
When molten or dissolved in water it can but in its standard, solid state it cannot.
