Question 16 • Physical Science

To what extent do covalent compounds conduct electricity?

Answer
A
never
B
rarely
C
usually
D
always

Explanation

Covalent compounds generally consist of neutral molecules, so they do not have freely moving charged particles to carry electric current. A few can conduct under particular conditions, but this is uncommon. Therefore, “rarely” is the best answer.
