Question

state weather magnesium chloride will conduct electricity or not. Give reasons for your answer.

Answer 1

Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound.So, it will not conduct electricity in solid state since its ions are tightly held in the lattice but in molten state and in aqueous solution, it will conduct electricity since its ions will be free to move and thus conduct electricity.

Answer 2

Magnesium chloride will not conduct electricity in its solid State bbecause it is an ionic compound and its ions are tightly packed.

Hope It helps you.
