Question

ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten form
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, ionic compounds conduct electricity in the molten state. ... In the solid state, these ions are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction so, the conduction of electricity isn't possible. However, in the molten or aqueous state, these ions are free to move and hence, conduct electricity.......

Answer 2

Answer:

In molten state or dissolved state ionic compounds conduct electricity because they contain charged particles called cations and anions. These ions are free to move to conduct electricity. Thus ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state or solution but in solid state they do not conduct electricity.
