What is A substance that conducts an electric current in solution?

A substance that dissolves in solution to conduct an electrical current is an "electrolyte" or, less commonly, an "ionogen".


A substance will conduct an electric current if it?

A substance will conduct an electric current if it forms ions in solution. A solute that produces ions in solution is an Electrolyte. An Electrolytic Solution is a solution that conducts electricity.


Which substance can not conduct electricity?

One substance that cannot conduct electricity is nonmetals in solid state, such as plastic and rubber, as they have very few free electrons available to carry an electric current.


Why does conduct of electricity require a cord?

Electric current is the movement of electrons. Various materials can conduct current, but the best materials are metals, because they have plenty of electrons which can move freely. Electric appliances, therefore, are provided with cords which contain metallic strands (usually copper) which carry the current.


Does iodine conduct electric current?

no,


Why ionic sustances can conduct electricity?

An electric current needs free current carriers, i.e. charged particles. Those are available in an ionic substance (i.e., the ions carry the current).


What Substances that conduct an electric current under certain conditions are most likely to be?

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.


How do pineapples conduct electricity?

Pineapples contain water and electrolytes, which can conduct electricity. The ions in the water inside the pineapple allow for the flow of electric current when a voltage is applied.


Can hydrocarbon mixture conduct electricity?

No, pure hydrocarbon mixtures do not conduct electricity because they consist of non-polar molecules that do not dissociate into ions. In order for a substance to conduct electricity, it must either contain charged particles (ions) or mobile electrons.

Does water conduct an electric current?

Yes it does.


Why do ionic crystals conduct electric current in liquid phase or when dissolved in water but do not conduct electric current in the solid phase?

because of the gravity or Magnetricity
