Slate is an electrical insulator. Slate is not a conductor of electricity.
because when the ions can move around freely, they can conduct electricity better
yes it sure can
because of the gravity or Magnetricity
Sugar (sucrose) is a material that dissolves in water but does not conduct electric current. Sugar molecules do not ionize in water, so the solution does not carry electric charge.
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.)
Yes, slate can be an insulator. Since slate is chiefly carbon based, and many forms of carbon act as a mild insulator, slate could have this property as well. Unfortunately, slate can also contain contaminants that might act as a conductor.
it can conduct electricity and heat.
No, slate rock is typically not attracted to a magnet because it is composed mainly of minerals like clay and quartz, which are not magnetic. Magnetic properties in rocks are usually found in those containing iron minerals, such as magnetite.
no,
Yes.

Yes it does.
no
