The properties of salt in this experiment demonstrate it is most likely an **ionic substance**. Ionic substances typically conduct electricity when dissolved in water or melted, as they dissociate into ions. Therefore, it is also correct to say that it is a **substance that breaks apart into ions** when dissolved. However, the more precise categorization based on the overall properties is "ionic substance."
