Explanation:
Ionic substances will not conduct electricity as solids. This is due to the fact that ions are not free to move in a solid as they are arranged in an ionic lattice. When an ionic substance is dissolved in solution or molten the ionic lattice is broken down allowing the ions to move freely and so conduction occurs.
