Electrical conduction
Substances can be divide into two groups based on their whether
they conduct electricity or not.
These ions are only mobile when the electrolytes are in molten or
aqueous state.
These free moving ions arise only when an ionic solid melts or
dissolves in water or when certain polar covalent compounds
dissolve in water and their molecules ionize (dissociate into freely-
moving ions).
