Salt is an ionic substance, meaning it breaks up into ions when dissolved.
Salt water has Na+ (sodium) and Cl- (chlorine) ions present in it, therefore being able to carry a charge through the ions.
to prove this you could try running an electric current through water, it won't work.
but if you dissolve some salt in it and attach a globe to the circiut, the globe will light up :)
Yes

The more salt in it, the better a conductor it is.
salt water is a good conductor of electricity as it contains sodium and chloride ions to carry out current
Salt must be mixed with water to make salt a good conductor.
Yes-we are composed of 95% water with salt and that's a good conductor. If you want to avoid static electricity shock, carry a quarter with you and touch metal first to discharge yourself. :-
Sodium chloride is an electrical conductor only in solution or when is melted.
Gold, silver and copper are metals and all good conductors of electricity and heat. Some other good electrical conductors are water (with solutes), people (mostly salt water), and ionized gases.
No
Yes
Well yes it is. It contains a high concentration of water and salt. Our body is 75% water and water and salt are good conductors of electricity. And so, it is most likely to be a conductor of electricity.

salt water
Yes. Salt water is a fairly good conductor of electricity.
Assuming you mean "salt water soaked", yes.
Soluble ionic compounds are excellent conductors of electricity when dissolved in water - such as sodium chloride (common salt)
Water is a better conductor.
in real, pure distilled water is a bad conductor of electricity.but if the water contains some amount of salt then it conducts to some extent.
In molten form a salt itself is a conductor of electricity.
