Explanation:

Because salt and vetsin is ionic bond , and ionic compounds conduct electricity when in solution but not in solid phase,therefore, vetsin and salt can conduct electricity when it dissolved in water. Vetsin and salt can't conduct electricity when it's in solid phase....

hope it will be helpful for u ☺❤☺❤

Answer:

Salt and vetsin solution such as sodium chloride (NaCl) conducts an electric current because it has ionsin it that have the freedom to move about in solution. These ions are produced when sodium chloride dissolves in pure water to produce sodium (Na+) and chloride ions (Cl–).

Explanation:

Vetsin is another name for the flavor enhancer MSG. It does not directly conduct electricity, but it is a salt and like other salts when dissolved in water separates into positive and negative ions. These ions are highly mobile in water, thus permitting the solution to conduct electricity.

Common Salt is a non-conductor of electricity. However, when salt is added to water, the polar geometry of water molecules pulls the sodium ions and and the chlorine ions apart, and keeps them that way. This is what we mean when we say that the ‘salt has dissolved’* .The sodium and chlorine ions act independently in the solution, and respond readily to an electric field applied across the it, positive ions moving one way and negative ions moving the opposite way. Such a movement of these two charged particles jointly constitutes an electric current. We refer to such a current as an ionic current (as against an electron current that flows through metallic and graphite conductors.Substances like common salt are known as ‘Electrolytes’. On their own, these electrolytes are non-conducting. However, an electrolyte solution in water is an excellent conductor.
