Sodium bromide is an ionic substance. It conducts electricity when melted or when dissolved in water. This is due to the sodium, Na+ ions and the Br- ions present. It does not conduct electricity in the solid state as the ions can not move.

Does calcium bromide conduct electricity?
Calcium bromide is an ionic solid, in the solid state it does not conduct electricity. Solutions do conduct, as does the melt.
Under what condition can potassium bromide conduct electricity?
Potassium Bromide will conduct electricity only when it is melted or dissolved in water
Does sodium Bromide conduct electricity in liquid state?
after heating Lead Bromide, it becomes a molten which conducts electricity. so the answer is yes it does. lead bromide's an ionic bond. so, compared to the structure of an ionic bond, lead bromide does conduct electricity when molten. When molten or in an aqueous state, the ions become free to move and so it can carry electric charge around as well.
Does solid potassium bromide conduct electricity?
No because it's a crystalline ionic solid. However, dissolve some KBr in water and it will conduct electricity nicely, because in solution it's an electrolyte, with lots of little K+ and Br- ions floating around.
Why doesn't sodium oxide conduct electricity?
covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity
Can potassium conduct electricity?
sodium bromide can conduct electricity though not in high quantitiesAdded:So does potassium bromide, as all ionic salts do (more or less) 'in solutae'
Does sodium bromide conduct electricity when sold?
Does not, in solid form there are no free ions so can not move towards cathode and anode plates so can not conduct electricity.

Under what condition can potassium bromide conduct electricity?
Potassium Bromide will conduct electricity only when it is melted or dissolved in water
Does solid lead bromide conduct electricity?
No.

Does soduim conduct electricity?
Yes, Sodium is a metal and it does conduct electricity.
Why doesn't sodium oxide conduct electricity?
covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity
Which compound conducts electricity only in the molten state?
Sodium Bromide
Does aluminum bromide conduct electricity?
Yes it does! Aluminum bromide is an ionic compound and aluminum alone is a very strong conductor.
Can solid sodium chloride conduct elcetricity?
Solid sodium chloride doesn't conduct electricity.
