An electrolyte solution, such as salt water or acid solutions, conducts energy because it contains ions that can carry electric current. When a voltage is applied across the solution, the ions move, allowing the flow of electricity.
More or less everything conducts thermal energy, but to different degrees.
substance mass
Photons absorbed by a solution "disappear" and the energy they brought with them is transferred into the solution. That energy appears in the "activity" of the atoms, molecules and/or ions in the solution. The kinetic energy of these particles will increase because of the added energy.
Something that conducts thermal energy well is a thermal...conductor. If it does not conduct well it is called an insulator.
The object you are referring to is called a conductor. Conductors are materials that allow the flow of both thermal energy and electricity through them.
In solution.
A solution which can conduct electricity is known as an electrolyte.
Electrolyte
It is an electrolyte.

Electrolyte or acid as we call it.
No, just the opposite. In making the trip through the water, the electric current uses up some of its energy. That will show up either as a heating of the water (think of an ordinary old-fashioned vaporizer), or as some chemical activity in the solution (decomposition of the molecules in the solution, electroplating, etc.).
The solution in a battery that conducts electricity is typically an electrolyte, which allows ions to move between the battery's electrodes to create a flow of electrons and generate electrical energy. Common electrolytes used in batteries include acidic or alkaline solutions, salts, or gels that enable the chemical reactions necessary for the battery to function.
A solution of two or more metals is called an alloy.
A conducting solution is a solution that either conducts heat, electricity or sound. The conductivity of a water solution depends on its concentration of dissolved salts and other substances that ionize in the solution.
Yes, I agree. Copper metal conducts electricity through the movement of electrons, which are negatively charged particles. In contrast, a solution containing dissolved ions can conduct electricity because the ions can move and carry charge through the solution.
