1.43: Know that Ionic Compounds Do Not Conduct Electricity when Solid, But Do Conduct Electricity When Molten and in Aqueous Solution



IONIC COMPOUNDS: Formed when atoms of Metals transfer Electrons to atoms of Non-Metals to form Compounds made up of ions



                                      Diagram showing Particles of Ionic Compounds in Solids
                                     and when in Molten / Solution Form

ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF IONIC COMPOUNDS:
s
  • Ionic Compounds cannot conduct electricity when in solid state as ions are fixed in structure and are not free to move
  • However, Ionic Compounds can conduct electricity when Molten or in Aqueous Solution as their ions are free to move to conduct an electric charge
