As aluminium oxide is an ionic compound, it conducts electricity in molten state.
yes
An ionic compound, such as magnesium chloride, has no overall charge in its solid state and does not conduct electricity.
Magnesium oxide is a solid.
NaCl can conduct electricity in the molten state, and when dissociated into its constituent ions in water, Na2+ and Cl-.
Magnesium oxide is an ionic substance, so when in a solid state the ions are held in a strong lattice formation (electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions). Ionic substances can only conduct electricity if their ions are free to move. In a molten state, the ions become free to move (the strong electrostatic forces of attraction are overcome when the melting poing is reached) and can therefore carry a charge (i.e. conduct electricity).

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.
In the molten state the ions of sodium chloride are free to move. Magnesium chloride would also conduct if it were molten. Since the ions of the magnesium chloride are bound together in the crystal lattice they cannot carry a current.
Magnesium oxide is a solid.
Sodium Iodide is held together by covelent bonds, therefore no "free" electrons exist which is what makes metals conductive. - Bird.
Ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state (melted) or when dissolved in a solution. Covalent compounds do not conduct electricity. Period.
No. Water can only conduct electricity in its liquid state with dissolved ionic solutes.
the word strength is too broad to pinpoint the complete answer but i persume magnesium oxide's strength refers to the physical state of the ionic bond. the word strength is too broad to pinpoint the complete answer but i persume magnesium oxide's strength refers to the physical state of the ionic bond.
