Explain the conductivity results observed for ionic compounds in the solid state and in aqueous solution. i. Solid ionic compounds don't have a conductivity because there isn't any free space. However, in an aqueous solution ionic compounds have free space causing it to be conductive

    Aqueous solution of ionic compounds conduct electricity while solid ionic compounds don't.

    Explanation:

    Ionic compound conduct electricity when liquid or in aqueous solution that is resolved in water because the ionic bonds of the compound become weak and the ions are free to move from place to place.

    Ionic compounds don't conduct electricity while in solid state because the ionic bonds are to strong and ions cannot move around with lack of space for movement which makes the electric conductivity zero.
