Does sodium chloride produce an electrical current?
Sodium chloride in solution or melted is a good conductor of electricity; but sodium chloride doesn't produce electricity.
Is dry solid sodium chloride a conductivity of electricity?
Not positive, but fairly sure that solid sodium chloride is not a conductor. Molten sodium chloride is a good conductor.
Is aqueous sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
Yes, aqueous sodium chloride solution is a good conductor of electricity. Since, it is an ionic salt, when dissolved in water it dissociates into ions and thus the free ions conduct electricity.
Why does sodium chloride have a low conductivity?
The boiling point of sodium chloride is 1 413 0C and it is not so low.
Is NaCl a good conductor?
Sodium chloride is an electrolyte only in water solutions or when is melted. Solid sodium chloride is not a conductor of electricity.
Why is NaCl and KI a conductor of electricity?
In dry or crystalline form, salt (Sodium Chloride) is a poor conductor. But when it is dissolved in water, the sodium forms Na+ ions and the Chlorine forms Cl- ions. With these extra ions in the water, it is easy for electrons to be carried through the solution and current to flow.
Why pure sodium chloride a non-conductor but when dissolved in water it is a good conductor of electricity?
They conduct better because then they break up into ions
Is sodium chloride a good conductor of electricity when melted?
Yes. It forms sodium positive ions (cations) and negative chloride ions (anions).
Is salt a conductor or an insulator?
salt water is a good conductor of electricity as it contains sodium and chloride ions to carry out current
Is Liquid sodium chloride is a good conductor?
Yes because this is an ionic compound so when its dissovled in water the ions are free to conduct electricity
Is Salt Water an insulator or a conductor?
salt water is a good conductor of electricity as it contains sodium and chloride ions to carry out current
Is Solid sodium chloride is a good conductor of electric current?
yes, because it is an ionic compund, made of the ionic bond of sodium and chloride. an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal and sodium is a metal while chloride is a nonmetal.
