true
In water solutions salt is dissociated: NaCl--------------Na+ + Cl-
The ions making up the solid salt disassociate in to Na+ and Cl-.
neon and helium
for the conductance of electricity freely moving ions and electrons are necessary. But in NaCl (in solid form) Na positive ion and Cl negative ion are held together by strong electrostatic force and there is no freely moving ion in NaCl (in solid state) therefore NaCl does not conduct electricity in solid form.
First- NaCl is not a molecular compound. Second you can't have fractioanl molecules. Do you mean Moles??
Sodium chloride is a solid, salt, inorganic compound; NaCl exist in the nature as the mineral halite. It is the most important food additive.
There are approximately 0.5 moles of NaCl in 29.22 grams. This would be 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of NaCl.

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a solid.
Sodium chloride (NaCl) primarily exhibits ionic bonding, characterized by strong electrostatic forces between the positively charged sodium ions (Na⁺) and negatively charged chloride ions (Cl⁻). These ionic bonds result in a high melting point and solid crystalline structure. In solution or molten form, NaCl can interact with water molecules through ion-dipole interactions, but the dominant intermolecular force in solid NaCl is ionic attraction.
No, solid NaCl cannot conduct an electrical current because ions are not free to move and carry the charge when in the solid state. Only in the molten or aqueous form can NaCl conduct electricity because the ions are mobile.
If you think to NaCl(s) the meaning is solid sodium chloride.
