Explanation:
In its solid state, sodium chloride (like many other ionic compounds) have fixed ions. This therefore means that the ions cannot move freely, a condition for the conduction of electricity. However, when it is in its molten state, the ions are free to move around, thus making them free to conduct electricity.
