It is a good conductor when melted or dissolved in water, but not when solid. This is because it is an electrolytic conductor, and can only carry electricity when its ions are free to move.

Is Magnesium Chloride a good conductor?

Magnesium chloride is not a good conductor of electricity in its solid form. However, when dissolved in water, it can conduct electricity because it dissociates into ions, which are able to carry electric charge.


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.


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.


Why is calcium a good conductor?

Calcium is not a good conductor of electricity. In fact, it is a poor conductor of electricity because it has a full outer electron shell, making it difficult for electrons to move freely within the material. This lack of mobility of electrons restricts the flow of electric current through calcium.


What is a Good conductor of electricity when mixed with water?

Salt (sodium chloride) is a good conductor of electricity when mixed with water because it dissociates into ions (sodium and chloride) in the water, allowing the flow of electricity through the solution.

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.


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


Can zinc chloride conduct electricity?

Yes, zinc chloride is a good conductor of electricity when dissolved in water. This is because the ions of zinc and chloride are free to move and carry electric charge.
