Question

The true statement about the electric conductivity:

  1. Covalent compounds when dissolved acts as conductor
  2. Both Covalent and Ionic compounds when dissolved acts as insulator
  3. Ionic compounds when dissolved acts as conductor
  4. Both Covalent and Ionic compounds when dissolved acts as conductor

hintHint:

The conduction of current depends on the movement of ions.

The correct answer is: Ionic compounds when dissolved acts as conductor


    • The conduction of electricity depends on the movement of ions.
    • Covalent compounds when dissolved are insulators.
    • Ionic compounds when dissolved are conductors as ions are free to move.
