Solid NaCl her what is the electrecally conduter?

Solid sodium chloride is not an electrical conductor.


Why is NaCl solution a good conductor but NaCl solid not?

for the conductance of electricity freely moving ions and electrons are necessary. But in NaCl (in solid form) Na positive ion and Cl negative ion are held together by strong electrostatic force and there is no freely moving ion in NaCl (in solid state) therefore NaCl does not conduct electricity in solid form.


Why is solid NaCl is a non conductor of electricity?

Na Cl in solid form is nonconductor because Na and Cl ions are strongly held by electrostatic forces but when dissolved in water or in molten state Na Cl is good conductor of electricity..


Does NaCl conducts electricity?

Not in its normal, solid form but it will when molten or dissolved in water.


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.


Is NaCl conductive?

Not as a solid, but dissolve it in water and the ions help electricity conduct through the saltwater. Totally pure water will hardly conduct electricity. The impurities in the water are what allows current to flow.


Different of solid state and liquid state of NaCl?

In its liquid state NaCl is able to let an electric current pass through it, due to the free moving electrons.


Why can't Sodium chloride in a solid state be an electrolyte?

Because in solid state NaCl is neutral, without free ions or electrons.


What would not be considered an electrolyte a NaCl in water b NaOH in water c solid copper d a hydrochloric acid solution?

The solid copper is a conductor but not an electrolyte.


When can sodium chloride losses the ability to conduct electricity?

When NaCl in in solid state.


What is the natural state of NaCl?

Under standard conditions of temperature and pressure NaCl (common salt or Sodium chloride) is a crystalline solid.


Give 5 examples of solid?

-- NaCl (when it's in its solid state, known as 'table salt') -- sugar (when it's in its solid state) -- volcanic rock (when it's in its solid state) -- H2O (when it's in its solid state, known as 'ice') -- steel (when it's in its solid state) -- CO2 (when it's in its solid state, known as 'dry ice')
