no liquid electrolyte which does not have sodium molecules conduct sodium ions because when liquid electrolyte does not have sodium molecules . so there r no sodium molecules and hence there r no any sodium ions. so how can liquid electrolyte conduct sodium ions.

Can NaCl conduct electricity in the liquid phase?
Yes, melted sodium chloride is an electrolyte.
What does sodium chloride conduct?
Sodium chloride conduct electricity only when is as an electrolyte: in water solution or melted.
Why does a sodium chloride crystal not conduct electricity?
Solid sodium chloride is not an electrolyte.
Why does sodium chloride and water conduct electricity but a sodium chloride crystal does not?
In water sodium chloride is dissociated and the solution become an electrolyte, electrically conductive. The solid NaCl is not an electrolyte.
Why does aqueous sodium chloride conduct electricity but dry sodium chloride does not?
Because sodium chloride solution is an electrolyte, containing ions Na+ and Cl-. Solid NaCl is not an electrolyte.
Why does a mixture of sodium chloride and water conduct electricity but sodium chloride crystal does not?
Sodium chloride solution is an electrolyte containg ions as Na+ and Cl-. Sodium solid crystal is not an electrolyte, is not dissociated.
Why does sodium conduct electricity but sodium chloride doesnt?
Sodium is a metal having free electrons; solid sodium chloride is not an 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-.
Does sodium chloride conduct electricity when it is dissolved?
Sodium chloride when dissolved in water forms an electrolyte that conducts electricity.
If you could melt a sample of sodium chloride would you expect it to conduct electricity?
yes, molten sodium chloride may conduct the electricity but is not a good electrolyte.
Can sodium chloride be considered an electrolyte in the liquid phase?
Yes, it is ionic.
Is Liquid sodium chloride is a good conductor?
Yes because this is an ionic compound so when its dissovled in water the ions are free to conduct electricity
