Explanation:The conductivity of an electrolyte is therefore affected by the following factors:
1.The concentration of ions in solution. The higher the concentration of ions in solution, the higher its conductivity will be.
2.The type of substance that dissolves in water. ...
3.Temperature.
Answer: Conduction of electricity depends on the movement of electrons and other charged particles (ions). Metals have free electrons and thus can conduct electricity in the solid-state but as the temperature increases, the collision between the electrons also increases, and thus the resistance to the flow of current increases.
Liquids can conduct electricity if they are ionic (liquid mercury is metal and hence the conduction is by the same mechanism as for metals). Salt solutions, molten salts, etc conduct electricity.
Gases are insulators and don’t conduct electricity unless the ionization potential is exceeded. Lightning is an example of the breakdown of the insulation of air.
