Expert Solution
Step 1

In dissolved state,

Ionic compounds conduct electricity because they contain charged particles called cations and anions.

These ions are free to move to conduct electricity. There are plenty of free ions in the dissolved state which are able to conduct electric current. 

That's how Ionic compounds conduct electricity in aqueous solution (dissolved in water).
