if they have free-flowing ions. Liquids, and metals often have these ions. BUT NOT WHEN THERE ARE COVALENT BONDS. Only ionic in liquid form.
sorry this answer sucks.

How can molecular compounds be distinguished from ionic compounds?
Many ionic compounds exist as crystals but covalent compounds as molecules (there are exceptions as diamond though). Ionic compounds would be good electrical conductors unlike molecular compounds.
Out of ionic pure covalent metallic and polar covalent which is most likely to conduct electricity?
All types of covalent compounds are not very good conductors of electricity. However, ionic compounds in their molten state and metallic substances are very good conductors of electricity.
Is kerosene good conductors of electricity?
no
Why is a solution of a strong acid a good conductor of electricity?
Strong acids are good conductors of electricity because they are strong electrolytes, which means they ionize more completely, therefore strong electrolytes are good conductors of electricity.
Are copper sulphate crystals good conductors of electricity?
no

Why is table salt a poor conducter of electricity?
Usually, solid ionic compounds are weak conductors of electricity. Aqueous solutions of ionic compounds are good conductors though as they have free ions for conductivity. When table salt is dissolved, the solution conducts electricity well.
Is true Metals are not good conductors of electricity. An electrolyte solution conducts electricity. Wood is a good conductor of electricity. Nonmetals are good conductors of electricity.?
1. Metals are good conductors of electricity.2.An electrolyte solution conducts electricity.3. Wood and nonmetals are not good conductors of electricity.
Good conductors of electricity are often good conductors of heat?
Generally speaking, materials that are good conductors of heat are good conductors of electricity. But there is a notable exception. Diamond, an allotrope of carbon, conducts heat better than any metal, but it is an electrical insulator.
Are glass and rubber conductors?
Glass and rubber are not good conductors of electricity.
Good conductors of heat and electricity?
Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.
What is a Good conductor of electricity when mixed with water?
Soluble ionic compounds are excellent conductors of electricity when dissolved in water - such as sodium chloride (common salt)
Are the metal good or bad conductors of electricity?
All metals are pretty good conductors of electricity.
Why the body is conductors of electricity?
The living body is a good conductor of electricity because of all the nice moistures, juices, fluids, organic compounds, and minerals in it. Yum !
Which substance are usually good conductors of heat and electricity?
Metals are usually good conductors of heat and electricity.
Are coins good or poor conductors of electricity?
Coins are made of metal and metals are good conductors of electricity.
