Solution

  • An Electrolyte either in aqueous or molten form conducts electricity due to the presence of charged particles in it.
  • PbBr2 is an electrolyte that conducts electricity only in a molten state as in this state it decomposes in to Pb2+andBr-ions. Thus, molten PbBr2 consists of positively charged and negatively charged ions which are able to conduct electricity.
