Why does molten sodium chloride will conduct electricity?
No, it is not. 'Solid sodium chloride doesn't conduct electricity, because there are no electrons which are free to move.' http://www.chemguide.co.uk/atoms/structures/ionicstruct.html
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.
Is sodium chloride different from a metal as an electrical conductor?
Sodium chloride is different from a metal as an electrical conductor. This is because sodium chloride is an ionic compound and therefore can only conduct electricity when molten or dissolved, as the ions are free to move in this state. However, metals can conduct electricity when solid or molten because the atoms are free to move in both states, therefore they can carry an electrical charge. This is therefore the difference between sodium chloride and metals as an electrical conductor.
Why doesn't sodium oxide conduct electricity?
covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity covalent bonds do not conduct electricity
Why will molten Sodium Chloride undergo electrolysis?
Molten sodium chloride consists of sodium ions and chloride ions and is therefore a conductor of electricity- and can be electrlysed.
Why sodium chloride will conduct electricity when molten?
Beacause they consist of free ions which conduct electricity
Is molten NaCl conducting electricity?
Yes, molten sodium chloride conduct electricity; the electrolysis is possible as an industrial process.
Can sodium hydroxide conduct electicity?
Not in its solid state. It will conduct electricity if molten or dissolved in water.
If you could melt a sample of sodium chloride would you expect it to conduct electricity?
yes, molten sodium chloride may conduct the electricity but is not a good electrolyte.
Conductivity of liquid of sodium peroxide?
Sodium peroxide will not conduct electricity. Only if in molten state which is electrolyse it will conduct electricity. Causes of the sodium peroxide cannot conduct it is because of there is no freely moving mobile ions.
Is Sodium chloride do they conduct electric city?
Sodium Chloride solution (dissolved in water) conducts electricity, and molten Sodium Chloride conducts electricty, but dry crystal Sodium Chloride does not conduct electricity.
Why does molten sodium chloride will conduct electricity?
No, it is not. 'Solid sodium chloride doesn't conduct electricity, because there are no electrons which are free to move.' http://www.chemguide.co.uk/atoms/structures/ionicstruct.html
Is sodium azide a good conductor of electricity?
Not in it's usual solid state. But sodium chloride will conduct electricity of molten or dissolved in water.
Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity but in molten state conduts electricity readily.Why?
Melted sodium chloride is an electrolyte containing the cation Na+and the anion Cl-.
What ways can you alter the state of sodium chloride so that it will conduct electricity?
Water solution of sodium chloride or molten NaCl are conductors.
When does sodium chloride not conduct electricity?
Solid NaCl is not an electrolyte; the saline solution or the molten NaCl are electrolytes.
Why does molten sodium chloride conduct electricity but crystalline magnesium chloride does not?
In the molten state the ions of sodium chloride are free to move. Magnesium chloride would also conduct if it were molten. Since the ions of the magnesium chloride are bound together in the crystal lattice they cannot carry a current.
