Solution

The correct option is A True
$N a C l$ is an ionic compound. In solid-state, it consist of ${N a}^{+}$ and ${C l}^{-}$ ions in a lattice. These ions are not free to move. they can just oscillate about their mean positions.

But in aqueous solution, these ions are free to move and hence allow the passage of electricity.

Hence, the given statement is true.
