NaCl is an ionic compound. In water it dissolves completely forming ions. Since it dissolves completely forming Na^+ and Cl^- ions it is classified as a strong electrolyte.
Strong electrolytes are completely dissociated into ions in solution and conduct an electrical current strongly.
Weak electrolytes are only partly dissociated (examples are molecules like acetic acid which forms a weak electrolyte).
Nonelectrolytes do not form ions at all and do not conduct electricity in their solutions.

Is Na Cl an electrolyte?
Yes, NaCl is an electrolyte.
Is 1 M NaCl a electrolyte or a nonelectrolyte?
The solution is an electrolyte
Is salt solution an electrolyte?
A solution of salt (NaCl) is an electrolyte.
Is sugar water an electrolyte or non electrolyte?
Its a non electrolyte.
Are Baso4 or C2H5OH or NaCl or CaOH2 none electrolyte when dissolved in water?
BaSO4 is insoluble in water so it is very weak electrolyte, ethanol can not produce ions so is non electrolyte other two are good electrolytes.
Can Na CI be a electrolyte?
There is no such thing as NaCI. You most likely mean NaCl (with a lowercase L) which is an electrolyte.
Why is the electrical conductivity of NaCl different when it is molten or dissolved in water?
Solid sodium chloride is not an electrolyte; water solution of NaCl is an electrolyte (also melted NaCl).
What is a substance whose solutions do not conduct electricity?
Non ionic, non electrolyte
Is NaCl table salt an electrolyte?
Sodium chloride is an electrolyte in water solutions or when is melted.
Can an aqueos solution of NaCl conduct electricity?
Yes, because the solution of NaCl is an electrolyte.
What type of electrolyte is sodium chloride?
In water solution or in molten state NaCl is a strong electrolyte.
Is hno2 and electrolyte or a non electrolyte?
It is an electrolyte
