Answer 2

I'm sorry, I cannot understand the meaning or context of this message. Can you please rephrase or provide more information?

Answer 3

When salt is dissolved in water, the resulting solution conducts electricity well because the salt dissociates into positive and negative ions in water. These free ions can then move and carry electric charge through the solution, making the solution electrically conductive. In contrast, pure water and pure salt do not conduct electricity well because they do not have free ions available to carry electric charge.
