Post Laboratory Questions
Compare your observations of the conductivity of dry sodium chloride and a solution of sodium chloride. What conclusions can you make about these observations? Interpret your observations; do not just restate what you saw. Keep in mind the conductivity, if any, of the water used to prepare the solution.
