Usually no. Molecular covalent bonded compounds do not conduct electricity. When the bonding is covalent and the bonds are sigma bonds the electrons are not free to move.
HOWEVER. Take graphite covalently bonded and a relatively poor conductor of electricity- because of its free electrons.
There are conductive organic polymers, these have free delocalised electrons.
What else can I help you with?
Can covalent compounds conduct electricity in water?
Generally, molecular covalent substances do not conduct electricity. Carbon as graphite is the exception. This is because they are neutrally charged; they do not have ions or delocalized electrons as these are being shared by the non-metals. Yet some conduct electricity when dissolved in water. This is because some react with water to produce ions which are attracted to the oppositely charged electrodes.
Does camphor conduct electricity?
No, camphor does not conduct electricity. It is a type of organic compound, so it cannot ionize to conduct electricity.
What is the noun of conduct?
The word conduct is a noun, a singular, common, abstract noun; a word for personal behavior, especially in relation to particular rules or accepted ways of behaving; the way in which a process or activity is managed.The noun forms for the verb to conduct are conductor, conduction, and the gerund, conducting.
What are three things metals can do?
Metals can conduct electricity, are malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets), and have a shiny appearance (luster).
Does oxygen conduct electricity?
oxygen does not conduct electricity because it is a gas that we breath in and a gas that we cannot see so it cannot conduct electricity.
What does bythermal conductivity mean?
Contains 2 different metals which conduct elec because they have different expansion rates. Like an old car choke that had a bi thermal coil which would wind/unwind with heat moving an arm or elec contact.
How do you know if you have an ionic or molecular compound?
The easiest difference to see is that ionic compounds dissolved in water conduct electricity, while covalent ones do not. Ionic compounds consist of a metal and non-metal, but covalents have only non-metal atoms.
When did Elec Ní hUicinn die?
Elec Ní hUicinn died in 1471.

Can you put an overdrive transmission in a 1981 Chevy truck that has a 3 speed automatic in it now Do you have to change rear end?
yes some trans are electronic, this could give you a problem with your computer or harness in the truck do your research .You can get elec. or none elec. I have a 4l60e there are two elec. or no elec. as far as the rear end your good to go.
Do all computers support dane elec 4gb flash drive?
The Dane-Elec Flash Drive is compatible with Windows and Mac.
Which bond is strong covalent bond or ionic bond?
Ionic bonds are -generally speaking- stronger than single covalents.

Thomas Edison
What is the conductor of elec tricity?
Pure silver
Are diatomic covalents held together by single covalent bond?
Sometimes yes - e.g. Chlorine. Sometimes no e.g Oxygen and Nitrogen.
