____________
How do Ionic Compounds conduct electricity in molten state ?
My answer:-
___________
We know , The conduction of electricity through a solution involves the movement of charged ions. A solution of an ionic compound in water contains ions, which moves to the opposite electrodes when electricity is passed through the solution.
Ionic Compounds don't conduct electricity in the solid state because the movement of ions is not possible due to their rigid structure.
But Ionic compounds do conduct electricity in the molten state . This is possible in the molten state since the electrostatic forces of attraction are overcome due to heat. Thus , the ions move freely and conduct electricity.
