Almost all of them if not all of them. Off hand I can not think of any metal that does not conduct electricity in the solid phase, I'm a little unsure about the liquid phase but I do beliece that the resistnce is still fairly low.

∙ 13y agoTheir nuclei are surounded by a sea of free floating electrons.since metallic bonds are due to electrostatic forces of attraction between between the negatively charged electrons and +vely charged nuclei, all their valence electrons become delocalised.unlike ionic compounds where ions are in fixed state in solid state in metals the delocalised electrons are mobile both in solid and molten form.

Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Is SrOH2 conductive?
Strontium hydroxide does not conduct electricity as a solid, but does conduct it when molten or when dissolved in water.
Is barium chloride conductive?
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
What are three charictaristic properties of ionic compounds?
High melting and boiling pointsDo not conduct electricity when solid (but they do conduct it when molten or dissolved)Physically strong
Is sodium azide a good conductor of electricity?
Not in it's usual solid state. But sodium chloride will conduct electricity of molten or dissolved in water.
Which substance conducts electricity in both molten and solid states?
Ag (silver) because it is a metal and metals conduct electricity no matter in solid or liquid phase.
Does potassuim hydroxide conduct electricity?
Not in its standard solid state. But it will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
How do ionic compounds conduct?
Do_ionic_compounds_conduct_electricitycompounds conduct electricity when they are either dissolved in water of they are molten. If they remain a solid then they will not conduct electricity
Which metals conduct electricity when in solid?
Zinc and other metals
Is SrOH2 conductive?
Strontium hydroxide does not conduct electricity as a solid, but does conduct it when molten or when dissolved in water.
Can sodium hydroxide conduct electicity?
Not in its solid state. It will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Can molten lead conduct electricity?
Not all but many of the substances conduct electricity in the molten form. Those substances which are insulators do not conduct electricity in any state, but subs. like ionic compounds start conducting electricity in the molten state.
Does Caesium Chloride Conduct Electricity?
Cesium Chloride can only conduct electricity in water or while molten. Once cesium chloride is in a solid state it will not conduct electricity.
Is barium chloride conductive?
Not in its usual solid state. But like other ionic compounds calcium chloride will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
Would NaOH conduct electricity?
Like other ionic compounds NaOH will not conduct electricity in its solid form, but will if dissolved in water or molten.
Why does potassium chloride conduct electricity?
Potassium chloride is an ionic solid, the ionic solids can conduct the electricity if they are in molten state or in aqueous solution.
Why potassium iodide can conduct electricity in the molten state but not in solid state?
Potassium Bromide or KBr is not able to conduct electricity in solid state. It is an ionic compound and its ions are not free to move in the solid state, hence they are not able to conduct electricity. But when they are in aqueous state, they are free to move and thus become able to conduct electricity.
