Solid sodium chloride is neutral and nonconductive.
In solution sodium chloride is dissolved and dissociated and become conductive; the same in the melt.

Does sodium chloride conduct electricity in trichloromethane?

No


Why doesn't sodium oxide conduct electricity?

Sodium oxide is an insulator because its atoms are held together by ionic bonds, which means that the electrons are tightly bound to the atoms and cannot move freely to conduct electricity. In order for a material to conduct electricity, it needs to have free moving electrons, which is not the case for sodium oxide.


What does sodium chloride conduct?

Sodium chloride conduct electricity only when is as an electrolyte: in water solution or melted.


Is Sodium chloride do they conduct electric city?

Sodium Chloride solution (dissolved in water) conducts electricity, and molten Sodium Chloride conducts electricty, but dry crystal Sodium Chloride does not conduct electricity.


Does sodium bromide conduct electricity?

Sodium bromide is an ionic substance. It conducts electricity when melted or when dissolved in water. This is due to the sodium, Na+ ions and the Br- ions present. It does not conduct electricity in the solid state as the ions can not move.


Does sodium chloride conduct electricity in ethanol?

No, sodium chloride does not conduct electricity in ethanol because ethanol is a nonpolar solvent that does not dissociate ionic compounds like sodium chloride. Sodium chloride only dissolves in ethanol, it does not ionize to form free ions that can conduct electricity.


Can sodium chloride conduct in heat?

Sodium chloride (table salt) can conduct electricity in its molten state or when dissolved in water, but not in its solid form. Heat does not directly affect its ability to conduct electricity.
