What is made up of moving electrons or ions?

Why is it that organic compound does not conduct electricity?
Covalent substances do not conduct electricity because they are sharing electrons, hence they are in a fixed position and are not able to move around and contribute to movement of the electric current.
Where does chlorophyll pick up electrons?
hydrogen ions
An atom that has lost or gained electrons is known as an ion. What compound is it made up of?
Atoms (and ions) are not made of compounds. Compounds are made of two or more different atoms.
How can you get a negatively charged ion?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they are called ions. As electrons are negatively charged, it is when they gain electrons that they become negative ions, if they lose electrons they become positive ions. They can also form ions in pairs. for example sodium atom (NA) gives up it's outer electron and becomes an NA+ ion. the chlorine atom (CL) picks up the spare electron and becomes a CL- ion.
What is related to gases but the atoms are different because they are made up of free electrons and ions of the element?
Plasma
Free electrons are produced at the metallic electrode that?
Free electrons are produced at the metallic electrode that has atoms, that give up electrons, and become ions in solution.
What is made up of moving electrons or ions?

What are the moving particles that make up electricity?
Free Delocalised Electrons or Ions in Liquids (or in a Molten Substance).
what state is made up separated electrons and positive ions?
Plasma
What is made up of free electrons?
Static Electricity

Is table salt made up of two ions?
Yes. It is made up of Na+ ions and Cl- ions.
When water is broken down what happens to the oxygen and hydrogen atoms?
Water (H20) is made up of hydrogen ions (H+) and hydroxide ions (OH-). When water is broken down (e.g. through electrolysis), OH- ions lose electrons to form oxygen gas and water. 4OH- --> 2H2O + O2 + 4e. The H+ ions on the other hand gain electrons to form hydrogen gas. 2H+ + 2e --> H2 Water (H20) is made up of hydrogen ions (H+) and hydroxide ions (OH-). When water is broken down (e.g. through electrolysis), OH- ions lose electrons to form oxygen gas and water. 4OH- --> 2H2O + O2 + 4e.

How do oranges conduct electrically?
Oranges are made up mostly of water, which conductes electricity due to the free hydroxide ions floating around in solution
