Question

(iii) Magnesium fluoride does not conduct electricity when it is solid.
What can be done to solid magnesium fluoride to make it conduct electricity?
In your answer explain why magnesium fluoride conducts electricity when this change is
made.​

Answer 1

Answer:

By turning it to molten state as molten state conduct electricity. This because in molten state due to heat the electrostatic force of attraction between the ions are more, so the ions are freely move and conducts electric current.

Answer 2

Explanation:

•Magnesium flouride does not conduct electricity when it is in solid state because in solids state ions are held together by strong electrostatic force due to which no free electrons and does not conduct electricity.

•To conduct electricity solid magnesium flouride must be converted into molten state by heating or some other method .

• solid Magnesium flouride conduct electricity into molten state , molten state conduct electricity because it contains free electrons and due to the movement of electrons it conduct electricity .
