metallic, ionic
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in solution, as their ions are free to move and carry electrical charge. Covalent compounds do not conduct electricity in any state, as they do not have free-moving ions or electrons.
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water because their ions become mobile and are able to carry electric charge through the solution. In the solid state, ions are locked in place and cannot move to conduct electricity.
Ionic compounds conduct electricity when they are dissolved in water or melted, allowing the ions to move and carry electric charge. Solid ionic compounds do not conduct electricity because the ions are fixed in place and unable to move to carry charge.
No, CaO (calcium oxide) is an ionic compound that does not conduct electricity in its solid form. It only conducts electricity when dissolved in water or melted to form a liquid state.
Yes, ionic compounds can conduct electricity when melted or dissolved in water because their ions are free to move and carry an electric charge. This allows them to carry electrical current. In the solid state, however, the ions are held in place and cannot move, preventing conduction of electricity.
Electrolytes
Potassium Bromide will conduct electricity only when it is melted or dissolved in water

No, ClBr (chlorine bromide) does not conduct electricity as it is a covalent compound. Ionic compounds typically conduct electricity when dissolved in water or melted because they dissociate into ions that can carry an electric charge.
Salt does conduct electricity when melted.

Table salt does not absolutely have to be dissolved in any solvent to conduct electricity, because it will do so if melted. The solvent if present must be one in which the salt ionizes, with water being the most common example.
Ionic solids do not conduct electricity in their solid state because their ions are not free to move and carry electric charge. However, when they are melted or dissolved in water, the ions become free to move and conduct electricity.
Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity because the ions are in a fixed position and cannot move to carry an electrical current. It is only when sodium chloride is dissolved in water or melted that it can conduct electricity due to the mobile ions.
