Some do. Electrolytes, which are substances that break into ions when dissolved in water, will conduct electricity. Such substances include soluble salts, acids, and bases.
Other water soluble substances are non electrolytes and do not break into ions in water, or at least do so in extremely minute amounts. They do not conduct electricity. These include alcohols, sugars, and some other polar compounds.
Substances that conduct an electric current under certain conditions are most likely to be metals or solutions containing ions. Metals have free electrons that can move through the material, allowing for the flow of electric current. Ionic solutions contain ions that can move and carry charge, enabling them to conduct electricity.
Because these solutions contains electrically charged particles - ions.

Solutions that do not conduct electricity are known as non-electrolytes. These substances, when dissolved in water, do not dissociate into ions, which is essential for the conduction of electricity. Common examples of non-electrolytes include sugar and ethanol. In contrast, electrolytes are substances that do dissociate into ions and can conduct electric current.
Yes, alcohol is a liquid and has delocalised electrons which can carry the electrical current. Edited: Seriously? Unless there are impurities in the alcohol that are electrolytes, alcohol will NOT conduct an electric current. Alcohols are considered as NON ELECTROLYTES, as they do not ionize and thus will not conduct a current. (Dr.J.)
Potassium hydroxide will conduct electric current when dissolved in water due to the presence of ions that allow the flow of electricity. Aluminum foil will not conduct electricity in water as it is a metal and does not dissolve into ions. Sugar is a non-electrolyte and will not conduct electricity when dissolved in water.
metalloids
Benzene is nonpolar and thus will only dissolve nonpolar substances. Covalent substances is vague, but even if benzene were to dissolve nonpolar solutes, they would not conduct electricity because the current has no ions or delocalized electrons to travel across.
The conductivity of the milk is defined by the substances in solution which can ionize and which therefore conduct an electric current.

Yes it does.
Substances that conduct electricity in an aqueous solution include salts, acids, and bases. These substances dissociate into ions when dissolved in water, allowing them to conduct electric current.
