Does potassium iodide conduct electricity

Answer 1

yes, salt is a very good conductor. The more salt the better.

This is true^ But potassium iodide is not salt. Sodium chloride is table salt. Potassium iodide is only electrically conductive in certain forms, aqueous for example.

^ you obviously do not know what a salt is. a salt is an ionic compound that results from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. Potassium iodide is a prime example of a salt.

Answer 2

Potassium permanganate is a deep purple crystalline ionic solid, sometimes called Condy's crystals (used as a snake bite antidote; it is a potent oxidant). As a solid, it does not conduct electrons if a voltage is applied, because crystals are isolated with air in between. A single crystal, however, can conduct, if it has sufficient defects. This is beyond a discussion for non-scientists. In solution, water in particular, it will conduct because the solid is a strong electrolyte and is disociated into potassium and permanganate ions. The more concentrated, the better the conduction. But it is not flash - nothing like say solid silver metal.

Answer 3

potassium sulfate is a poor conductor of electricity

Answer 4

Yes
