Does sodium chloride conduct electricity in solution?

In an aqueous solution sodium chloride can in fact conduct electricity. This is because within an aqueous solution ions are free to move while as a solid NaCl will not conduct any electricity


Why does an aqueous solution of sodium chloride conduct electricity?

Aqueous solution of sodium chloride conducts electricity because it is a soluble ionic compound, which when dissolved in water, it dissociates into Na + and Cl - ions. These ions are mobile charge carriers which can accept and transfer electrons in solution, and therefore facilitate the conduction of electricity. Hope this helps, physicsisland@hotmail.com
