Sodium chloride is an electrolyte only in water solutions or when is melted.

Solid sodium chloride is not a conductor of electricity.

Why nacl is bad conductor of eletricity in solid state?

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a bad conductor of electricity in the solid state because its ions are held tightly in a fixed position within the crystal lattice, so they are not free to move and carry an electric current. Only when NaCl is melted or dissolved in water does it become a good conductor of electricity, as the ions are free to move and carry charge.


2 Predict and explain what systems are electrically conducting a solid NaCl b molten NaCl c An aqueous solution of NaCl?

a) In a solid state, NaCl is an insulator since the ions are held in fixed positions and cannot move to conduct electricity. b) When NaCl is melted into a liquid state, the ions are free to move and can carry an electric current, making molten NaCl an electrical conductor. c) In an aqueous solution of NaCl, the salt dissociates into ions, allowing them to move freely in the solution and carry an electric current, making it a good conductor of electricity.

Is salt water a conductor or a insulator?

insulator.


Why is NaCl solution a good conductor but NaCl solid not?

for the conductance of electricity freely moving ions and electrons are necessary. But in NaCl (in solid form) Na positive ion and Cl negative ion are held together by strong electrostatic force and there is no freely moving ion in NaCl (in solid state) therefore NaCl does not conduct electricity in solid form.


Predict and explain which of the following systems are electrically conducters asolid Nacl bmolten Nacl can aqueous solution Nacl?

Solid NaCl is not an electrical conductor as the ions are held in a fixed lattice structure. Molten NaCl and aqueous solution NaCl are electrical conductors as the ions are free to move and carry charge, allowing for the conduction of electricity.
