Ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state .give reason

Answered by admin @



In molten state or dissolved state ionic compounds conduct electricity because they contain charged particles called cations and anions. These ions are free to move to conduct electricity. Thus ionic compounds conduct electricity in molten state or solution but in solid state they do not conduct electricity.
