Electrical conductivity. Light bulb showing the electrical conductivity of a solution of sodium chloride in water. Sodium chloride (table salt) dissolves in water and forms ions. These ions carry electric charge between the electrodes (black) dipped into the solution in the beaker. Solid sodium chloride does not conduct electricity.
