4. Ionic compounds conduct electricity when they are in the __ state

Salts do not conduct electricity at the solid state since the ions are in a fixed position in the lattice. However, at the molten state or in solution, the ions are free and they can move within the liquid phase to serve as electrons shuttles and therefore, they become conductive.

Explanation:

Hello, your Answer and Explanation Are Below ^^

in short, ionic compounds conduct electricity in water because they separate into charged ions, which are then attracted to the oppositely charged electrode
