Question

why ionic compounds conduct electcity in aqueous solution????​

Answer 1

Explanation:

When ionic compounds are in a molten state or dissolved in water, forming an aqueous solution, the ions that formed the ionic compounds are able to move around freely, thus able to conduct electricity

Answer 2

Explanation:

because of the Ions gets dissolved in water and become as Hydrated ion For Example :

Nacl +H2O ===> Na+. + Cl-

Here Na+ is nothing but it is an Hydrated sodium I mean that a single sodium ion is totally surrounded by H2O molecules and similar with Chlorine surrounded by H2O particularly Na+ with O- and Cl- with H+ which ultimately results in not letting the Ions to form again a Nacl Bond...due this Ions dissolving nature only Ionic compounds conduct electricity and in solid state it is fully Lattice crystal so bonds so strong it doesn't let Ions to get brake so only in molten state it conducts electricity not in solid state

Thank you
