Iodine is covalent so it does not conduct electricity in a solid, however it will conduct in a liquid or molten state. The reason why it cannot conduct in a solid is that electrons cannot move freely through it.
You can conduct a conductivity test on an iodine crystal to confirm that iodine is a non-metal. If the crystal does not conduct electricity, it indicates that iodine is a non-metal because non-metals are typically poor conductors of electricity.
No, methanol does not conduct electricity. It does not conduct electricity because it is a non-electrolyte molecule. Sugar also is non-electrolyte, therefore it also does not conduct electricity.
Sodium oxide is an insulator because its atoms are held together by ionic bonds, which means that the electrons are tightly bound to the atoms and cannot move freely to conduct electricity. In order for a material to conduct electricity, it needs to have free moving electrons, which is not the case for sodium oxide.
No, like most ionic compounds it does not.
Ammonia is a gas. Gases do conduct electricity, as all materials do. However, they conduct electricity so poorly that we consider them insulators. "Electricity" requires the movement of electrons. In a gas, these electrons are too dispersed to provided any measurable current. So it does conduct electricity and heat, however conducts them both very poorly ;')
No solid iodine does not conduct electricity.
No solid iodine does not conduct electricity.
Liquid iodine does not conduct electricity because it does not contain free ions or electrons that are necessary for the flow of electric current. Iodine molecules in liquid form do not dissociate into ions or have mobile charge carriers, so they are not able to carry an electric charge.
No, iodine is not a conductor in its molten state. Iodine is a non-metal and does not conduct electricity, whether in solid, liquid or gaseous state.
because they are metals
Iodine itself is not conductive. However, when iodine is dissolved in a suitable solvent such as water or an organic solvent, it can form an electrolyte solution that can conduct electricity.
Iodine itself is not conductive, as it is a nonmetal. However, when iodine is dissolved in an appropriate solvent like water, it can form an electrolyte solution which can conduct electricity.
iodine is a covalent compound and no ionic properties. there are no free electrons on it. so it can not conduct electricity.
No
Nonmetals such as sulfur, phosphorus, and iodine are unable to conduct electricity because they lack free-moving electrons in their atomic structure. This results in these nonmetals being poor conductors of electricity.

Iodine is a solid that can conduct electricity in its molten or aqueous state. In its solid state, iodine is considered a semiconductor, not an insulator, as it has some electrical conductivity due to the movement of charge carriers.
