Electric current does not need a liquid. It can pass in solids, liquids, gases, and even empty space. If it passes through a liquid, the liquid is called an electrolyte.
Electrolytes, such as salt water or sulfuric acid, allow electricity to pass through when dissolved in water. This is because they contain ions that can carry electric current.
In a liquid, the current is carried by the movement of charged particles called ions or electrons. Ions can be positively or negatively charged atoms or molecules, while electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles. The flow of these charged particles creates an electric current in the liquid.
An electric discharge is the sudden flow of electricity through a gas, liquid, or vacuum due to a buildup of charge, often resulting in a visible spark. In contrast, an electric current is a continuous flow of electric charge through a conductor. While both involve the movement of charged particles, the key difference is that an electric discharge is a temporary and often localized event, whereas an electric current is a sustained, directed flow of charge.
First off, not all liquids allow current to flow through them, some are great insulators and allow no current flow. The amount of free electrons in the liquid determines whether or not this can happen. it is all about the molecule makeup of the liquid. The more free electrons the better current flow capabilities. Mercury is one of the best conductors, De-ionized water is electrically neutral and does a poor job and is almost an insulator, hope this answer works.
The liquid you cannot see through but allows light to pass through is called opaque. This means that the liquid does not allow visible light to pass through, making it impossible to see through it.
Electric current passes through substances called "conductors", as well as "semiconductors". Conductors include all metals, and any liquid with ions in it.Electric current passes through substances called "conductors", as well as "semiconductors".

Yes, alcohol is a liquid and has delocalised electrons which can carry the electrical current. Edited: Seriously? Unless there are impurities in the alcohol that are electrolytes, alcohol will NOT conduct an electric current. Alcohols are considered as NON ELECTROLYTES, as they do not ionize and thus will not conduct a current. (Dr.J.)
an insulator
Magnetricity
In the process of electrolysis, current can flow through a liquid because the liquid contains ions that can move and carry charge. When an electric potential is applied across the electrodes in the liquid, the ions migrate towards the oppositely charged electrode, allowing for the flow of current.
because of the gravity or Magnetricity
In the process of electrolysis, current can flow through liquid because the liquid contains ions (charged particles) that can carry the electric current. When a potential difference is applied across the electrodes placed in the liquid, the ions move towards the electrodes, allowing the current to flow and chemical reactions to occur.
It is called electrolysis.
