Does camphor conduct electricity?
No, camphor does not conduct electricity. It is a type of organic compound, so it cannot ionize to conduct electricity.
Why can't an ionic compound conduct electricity?
An ionic compound cannot conduct electricity only in solid state. It is so because conduction in an ionic compound is due to movement of ions. In the solid state the ions are unable to move, so they can't conduct electricity but in molten state they are free and hence conduct electricity in that state.
What compound dissolves in water but does not conduct electricity?
ice
When can an a ionic compound conduct electricity?
When molten or dissolved in water.
Does sulphate conduct electricity?
Dry sulfates generally do not conduct electricity (very well... everything conducts electricity if the potential is high enough).Any ionic compound, including sulfate compounds, will conduct electricity if dissolved in water.
When can an ionic compound conduct electricity?
An ionic compound can conduct electricity when it is in solution or melted.

What mixes with water that can conduct electricity?
An ionic compound dissolved in water is an electrolyte and can conduct electricity.
