Which of the following does not conduct electricity?
Correct answer: C. Solid NaCl
- A. Molten NaOH
- B. Molten KOH
- C. Solid NaCl
- D. Aqueous NaCl
Explanation
In solid state, ionic compounds are bad conductors of electricity. Ionic compounds conduct electricity only in molten or aqeous state .

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
