Yes, aqueous sodium chloride solution is a good conductor of electricity.
Since, it is an ionic salt, when dissolved in water it dissociates into ions and thus the free
ions conduct electricity.

Is Solid sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
yes, because it is an ionic compund, made of the ionic bond of sodium and chloride. an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal and sodium is a metal while chloride is a nonmetal.
Why is a melted ionic compound a good conductor of electric current but the a solid ionic compound is a poor conductor of electric current?
Upon melting, the ions are free to move and conduct electricity.
Does copper wire carry electric current?
It is a conductor & common in wiring.
Why does cesium bromide in an aqueous solution conduct electric current?
Cesium bromide is dissociated in water in ions.
Is sodium chloride is a good insulator of electric current?
Yes Sodium Chlorine is a good insulator because there is not lose electrons to participate in the current flow
When an electric charge moves through a conductor there is an electric in the conductor?
current
Why you get electric shock when current flows opposite direction in a conductor?
When current flows in a conductor you do not get an electric shock provided you do not touch the conductor.
Can Magnetism cause an electric current to flow in a conductor?
Yes, a MOVING magnetic field will cause electric current to flow in a conductor. Conversely an electric current flowing in a conductor will cause a magnetic field.
The flow of electrons through a conductor is called?
electric current
Electric current in a metal conductor is carried by?
Electric current in a metal conductor is carried by a wire. This wire has been specifically adapted to carry this current.
What is the conductor of electric current?
AMPERE
What is the term used for the hindrance a conductor creates to the flow of electric current?
Resistance is the hindrance a conductor creates to the flow of electric current
Is Solid sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
yes, because it is an ionic compund, made of the ionic bond of sodium and chloride. an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal and sodium is a metal while chloride is a nonmetal.
Does an electric current flow through a material that is conductor or an insulator?
A conductor
The process of generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor in a magnet field is?
The process of generating an electric current from the motion of a conductor in a magnetic field is known as induction.
What is the movement of electrons along a conductor called?
It is called, "electric current", and is measured in "Amperes".
What do you call a material that carries an electric current?
A Conductor.
