➡solid copper sulphate does not conduct electricity but when it is dissolved in water ,it does conduct electricity... the reason is :-

⚫in solid state, copper sulphate is a non electrolyte ie it does not dissociate into ions when passage of electric current takes place.

⚫but when we dissolve it in water, this copper sulphate becomes copper sulphate solution and it becomes capable of dissociating into ions , with the passage of electric current, so it becomes a strong electrolyte.

⚫hence, conducts electricity in solution state.

Answer 2

Copper sulphate is an ionic compound that why when dissolved in water conducts electricity.

Explanation:

Copper sulphate is an ionic compound which means the compound will dissociate into ions so it will start conducting electricity.

The conduction of electricity takes place by the help of the free electrons and when copper sulphate is dissolved in water.

Copper and sulphate ions dissociates upon forming of copper sulphate solution and hence starts conducting electricity.
