QUESTION
Ionic compounds conduct electricity in both solid phase and in solution
A. False
B. Maybe
C. True
D. A and C
ANSWER
Amongst the given choices above the correct answer is letter A. False
WHY?
The statement "Ionic compounds conduct electricity in both solid phase and in solution". is false, because when ions are in their solid form they actually can't conduct electricity.
Ions can only conduct and generate electricity if they are in liquid form because they can move much freely in this state than when in solid state where they are tightly packed (rigid)and pretty much stationary.
