Ionic compounds do not conduct electricity in the solid state because the ions are held in a lattice and do not move freely. However, when they are melted or dissolved in water, they can conduct electricity. This is because the ions are free to move in the molten state or aqueous solution.

The Valence Electrons of an Atom of Which Element would feel a Greater Effective Nuclear Charge than the Valence?
kumpel [21]
The effective nuclear charge is an innate property of a specific element. It is the pull of force that an electron feels from the nucleus. It is related to the valence electron by the equation: Z* = Z-S, where Z* is the effective nuclear charge, Z is the atomic number and S is the shielding constant.

For the following elements in the choices, these are their values of Z*:

Aluminum - +12.591
Beryllium - +1.912
Hydrogen - +1
Carbon - +4

The effective nuclear charge of Boron is +3. Thus, the answers are  Aluminum and Carbon.
