yes there is. it all depends on the stength of the bonds.
for example an ionic bond wont conduct electricity unless it is dissolved in water, cos then the ions are free to move and carry a charge. a mettalic bond will allow a charge to move through because of its delocalised electrons (also the reason for its maluability). a covalent bond isn't very conductive cos its gay

∙ 13y agofirstly ionic bond is when a metal and non-metal element found in the period table bonds together, basically metals gives away their unwanted electrons and non-metal elements adopt them to stabilise their outer shell. Electrical conductivity of an ionic bond is because there are enough electrons available in the structure that they can carry charges.

In liquid/molten form metallic and ionic substances, as well as graphite, conduct electricity

Covalent/Molecular - Poor conduction as a solid or liquid.
Metallic - Good conduction as a solid or liquid (molten).

What bond is results of electrical attractive forces?
I believe that would be a Hydrogen Bond.
The sharing of electrons is referred to as?
Sharing two pairs makes a double bond. Sharing three pairs makes a triple bond.
MgCl2 and Water are what kinf of bond?
Water is a covalent bond whereas, MgCl2 has a ionic bond and makes a Gaint ionic lattice Water is a covalent bond whereas, MgCl2 has a ionic bond and makes a Gaint ionic lattice
Why is Beryllium chloride is a poor electrical conductor when molten while the next Group 2 chloride magnesium chloride is a good electrical conductor when molten?
Beryllium has a higher charge density and polarising power due to its relatively small ionic radius as compared to Magnesium. As such, the electron cloud of Chlorine is distorted and there is a high degree of covalent character in the ionic bond as compared to Magnesium Chloride. This means that there are hardly any free delocalised electrons in Beryllium Chloride to act as mobile charge carriers when molten, and hence the poor electrical conductivity.
What is an inioc bond?
Because it is really hot so the ionic charges build up and it creates an ionic bond but an ionic bond is an electrical charge that creates friction off of other rocks.
What is a conductor used to connect equipment or the grounded circuit of a wiring system to a grounding electrode or electrodes?
The conductor used to connect equipment or circuit to an earth electrode is earth bond or in some cases a supplementary bond. This will be generally carried out using a copper tape or an earth cable.
Which substance meets the requirements cubic solid poor electrical conductor in the solid state good conductor when fused a sodium chloride b diamond c sulfur d chromium?
A, sodium chloride, because it is a crystalline solid. It has an ionic bond when in it's solid form and is a poor conductor. It is a good conductor of electricity in an aqueous state or when fused.
What are free electrons in a conductor?
They are electrons that are transferred through the conductor thanks to bonds of the atoms within the substance. An example of this kind of bond would be a metallic bond. They're what cause the conductivity
What bond is results of electrical attractive forces?
I believe that would be a Hydrogen Bond.
What is a bond formed by the electrical attraction between two oppositely charged ions is a(n) .?
Ionic Bond :)
When was The Best of Bond...James Bond created?
The Best of Bond...James Bond was created in 1962.
The type of chemical bond formed when ions with opposite electrical charges attract?
Ionic Bond
What size bond for a 200 amp 3 phase service?
A #6 copper conductor is used to bond a 200 amp distribution.
