  • An ionic compound will not conduct electricity as a solid.
  • It will conduct electricity when melted.
  • Some ionic compounds are soluble. Their solutions in water also conduct electricity.
<h3>Explanation</h3>

A substance should contain charged particles that are free to move around in order to conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds contain an ocean of ions. They carry either positive or negative charges. Attractions between them hold them in a rigid lattice under the solid state. Those ions are unable to move. The ionic compound can't conduct electricity.

Melting the ionic compound will break the lattice. Those ions are now free to move to conduct electricity. Dissolving the compound in water will also free the ions. As a result, those solutions will also conduct electricity.

Conductivity under different states distinguishes between ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and metals.

  • Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted but not as a solid.
  • Molecular compounds have no charged particles. They do not conduct electricity even when melted.
  • Valence electrons in metals are free to move both when the metal is a solid and when it is melted. Metals conduct electricity under both solid and liquid states.

At 273 k and 1.00 x 10^-2 atm, the density of a gas is 1.24 x 10^-5 g/cm3.
bija089 [108]

Root mean square velocity is the square root of the mean of the squares of speeds of different molecules. From kinetic theory of gas, the formula of root mean square velocity=C_{rms}= √\frac{3RT}{M}=√\frac{3PV}{M}=√\frac{3P}{d}, where, R= Universal gas constant, T= Absolute temperature, P= Pressure, V= Volume of gas, d= Density of gas.

Given,  T=273 K, P=1.00 x 10⁻² atm, d=1.24 x 10⁻⁵ g/cm³.

(a) Using the formula C_{rms}=√\frac{3P}{d}=√(3X1.00X10⁻²)/(1.24X10⁻⁵)=49.18

(b) Molar mass can be determined by using the formula C_{rms}=√{3RT}{M}

49.18=√\frac{3X8.314X273}{M}

49.18²=√(3X8.314X273)/M

M=\frac{3X8.314X273}{49.18^{2} }

M=1.67 ≅ 2

Molecular mass is 2.

(c) The gas is Helium (He) whose molecular mass is 2.
