while ionic compounds in the solid state do not conduct electricity, when they are melted, electric current

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic (or electrovalent) compounds conduct electricity when there they are in the aqueous state/solution because the charges of ions of these compounds are what carry the electric charges in the aqueous solution as a result of free movement within the aqueous solution which they do not "have" when in there solid state (where they have a highly restricted movement/compacted structure).
