Rubber
Sodium chloride, NaCl, for example is of neutral pH and conductive in solution or in molten state. It is a salt.
One example of a substance fitting this description is diamond. Diamond is a natural crystalline solid that does not dissolve in water, does not conduct electricity, and has a melting point of around 3550°C.
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.
One example of a substance that fits this description is copper. Copper has high luster (shiny appearance), can conduct electricity effectively, and is malleable (can be hammered into thin sheets without breaking).

Graphite is an example of a substance that has a high melting and boiling point and can conduct electricity. It has a layered structure that allows for the easy movement of electrons, which is why it can conduct electricity despite being a non-metal.
Ionic substances can conduct electricity because they contain charged particles called ions that are free to move. When an ionic substance dissolves in water or melts, the ions become mobile and are able to carry an electric charge, allowing the substance to conduct electricity.
pure water does not conduct electricity. the presence of electrolytes in the water is what conducts electricity. the equation for the conductivity (ability to conduct electricity) Conductance = 1/ resistance
Quartz.
Graphite is an example of a substance that can conduct electricity but is a poor conductor of heat. This is because of its unique structure, where it has delocalized electrons that can move freely to conduct electricity, but the heat energy is not easily transferred through the material due to weak intermolecular forces.
Conductivity in a substance can be determined by measuring its ability to conduct electricity. This can be done using a conductivity meter, which measures the flow of electrical current through the substance. Higher conductivity indicates a greater ability to conduct electricity.
One example of a substance that conducts electricity in its aqueous state but not in its solid state is sulfuric acid. In its aqueous state, sulfuric acid ionizes into ions that are able to carry an electric current, whereas in its solid state it does not have the mobility of ions to conduct electricity.
