It depends on the alkaline substance you use. A soluble ionic base, such as sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) or potassium hydroxide (potash lye), would conduct electricity well. A solution containing a covalent base such as ammonia would be a poorer conductor.

Ionic solids bad conductors of electricity?
No
What properties do all metalloids have in common?
Metalloids are brittle and bad conductors of electricity.
How good and bad conductors of heat are useful to us?
Substances that don't have the capacity to carry heat are called bad conductors of heat (or insulators ). Substances that have the capacity to carry heat are called good conductors of heat. As for electricity, it is very, much the same.
Why sulfur is good insulator?
Sulfur is a nonmetal. Nonmetals are bad conductors, while metals are good conductors. Since sulfur is a bad conductors, it is a good insulator.
What are the differences of metal and non metal?
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, are ductile, malleable and shiny, and most of them are solid (except mercury). A non metal is a bad conductor of heat and electricity, are not malleable, ductile or shiny, and can be a solid, liquid, or gas.
Are the metal good or bad conductors of electricity?
All metals are pretty good conductors of electricity.
Bad conductors of electricity?
rubber
Ionic solids bad conductors of electricity?
No
Why are most molecular compounds bad conductors of electricity?
they will not ionize
Are metals a bad conductor of electricity?
No. Metals are good electrical conductors.
What properties do all metalloids have in common?
Metalloids are brittle and bad conductors of electricity.
Which metals are bad conductor of electricity?
Scientifically speaking, metals aren't bad conductors. Only nonmetals are poor conductors and metalloids have the possibility of being a poor conductor.
What is the characteristic of a material that hinders electron flow?
It is called resistance Good conductors have a bad resistance While bad conductors or insulators have good resistance against the flow of electricity
What are semi-conductive metalloids?
Metalloids are known as semi-conductors meaning they can conduct electricity, but they are not good conductors. Metals are good conductors. Non-metals are bad conductors.
What are the properties of electricity?
good conductors of heat bad insulators low resistence high conductivity
Define bad conductors of electricity?
Bad Conductor of HeatGold is a bad conductor of heat.
What is bad conductors of electricity?
There are many. One example is plastic. to expand first are the ceramics, then glasses, finally plastics.
