Does SCl2 conduct electricity?
no because its a covalent compound, it undergoes covalent bonding. if it was a metallic or ionic then it would conduct when molten or in aqueous state. the only element that undergoes a covalent bonding and conducts electricity is graphite, no other element or allotrope conducts.
Why are ionic compound non conductors of electricity in solid and rare conductors of electricity in molten state?
The reason they are in solid and molten states is because of there electricity conducting capability's
When dont ionic compounds conduct electricity?
In solid state because it looses its electron so it does not but when it gain electron in liquid n gas state, so it conducts electricity.
Why can't an ionic compound conduct electricity?
An ionic compound cannot conduct electricity only in solid state. It is so because conduction in an ionic compound is due to movement of ions. In the solid state the ions are unable to move, so they can't conduct electricity but in molten state they are free and hence conduct electricity in that state.
Why does sodium chloride conduct when molten or in solution?
It conducts due to the presence of free ions in molten and solution state.
What compound conducts electricity molten state?
ionic compounds
Does aluminum oxide conduct in liquid form?
As aluminium oxide is an ionic compound, it conducts electricity in molten state.
Does SCl2 conduct electricity?
no because its a covalent compound, it undergoes covalent bonding. if it was a metallic or ionic then it would conduct when molten or in aqueous state. the only element that undergoes a covalent bonding and conducts electricity is graphite, no other element or allotrope conducts.
Does solid lithium bromide conduct electricity?
no. it is an ionic compound which does not conduct electricity as the ions are not free to move around. however when they are in molten or aqueous state, they are able to conduct electricty as the ions disssociate and then will be free to move about freely.
Why are ionic compound non conductors of electricity in solid and rare conductors of electricity in molten state?
The reason they are in solid and molten states is because of there electricity conducting capability's
Does sodium Bromide conduct electricity in liquid state?
after heating Lead Bromide, it becomes a molten which conducts electricity. so the answer is yes it does. lead bromide's an ionic bond. so, compared to the structure of an ionic bond, lead bromide does conduct electricity when molten. When molten or in an aqueous state, the ions become free to move and so it can carry electric charge around as well.
When dont ionic compounds conduct electricity?
In solid state because it looses its electron so it does not but when it gain electron in liquid n gas state, so it conducts electricity.

Can ethanoic acid conduct electricity in molten state?
I didn't know electricity had a molten state...
Why is potassium a good conductor of electricity?
Potassium is a very reactive metal, but being a metal, it conducts very well in the solid state. It does not have to be melted, but it will conduct in the molten state as well (but to a different extent).
Why does sodium chloride conduct when molten or in solution?
It conducts due to the presence of free ions in molten and solution state.
Do ionic compound's or covalent molecole's conduct electicity?
Ionic compounds conduct electricity in aqueous solution or molten state. In aq. soln. or molten state, ionic compounds dissociate to release respective ions. These ions, being electrically charged, conduct electricity.
