Question

Identify the terms: a substance conducts electricity in molten or aqueous state

Answer 1

A substance which conducts electricity in molten or aqueous state is called an electrolyte

Answer 2

We have three types of bonds :

1.) Bonds between metals - Metallic bonds.

2.) Bonds between non metals - Covalent bonds

3.) Bonds between metals and non metals - Ionic bonds

Metallic bonds form structures which conduct electricity in both liquid and solid state.

This is because they have electrons that are mobile within their structures.

Ionic bonds form structures which conduct electricity only in liquid state that is in solution form.
