Oranges are made up mostly of water, which conductes electricity due to the free hydroxide ions floating around in solution
Sodium chloride is not electrically conductive.
yes
yes
It might be, relative to another conductor that does not touch it.
Yes, if they are dissolved in water. In the solid state, they cannot conduct a current.
Acid fruits do this. Lemons, oranges, grapefruit come to mind immediately.
Electrically non conducting paint does not conduct electricity in any way. This type of paint is an insulator. Standard water-based paints or acrylic paints are normally non conducting paint.
Because these solutions contains electrically charged particles - ions.
Steel is not electrically inert; it is a conductive material. While it does not conduct electricity as well as copper or aluminum, it still allows electric current to flow due to the presence of free electrons in its metallic structure. The conductivity of steel can vary depending on its composition and alloying elements, but in general, it can conduct electricity to some extent.
no. for example ceramic insulating heat sink wafers conduct heat very well from an electronic component to a metal heatsink while insulating the component electrically from the heatsink.
They consist of ions in solution, and are therefore electrolytes.
Ionic compounds conduct electricity in aqueous solution or molten state. In aq. soln. or molten state, ionic compounds dissociate to release respective ions. These ions, being electrically charged, conduct electricity.
