* Yes, cation soluble inorganic compounds will conduct an electric current in solutions. This is because these compounds dissociate into their ions (cations and anions) when dissolved in water. These free-moving ions act as charge carriers, allowing the solution to conduct electricity.
* However, it's not just about cations. Both cations and anions are needed for electrical conductivity in solution. Cations carry a positive charge, while anions carry a negative charge. The movement of both types of ions is essential for the flow of electrical current.
Here's a more accurate statement:
Soluble inorganic compounds, which dissociate into ions in solution, will conduct an electric current. This conductivity is due to the movement of both cations and anions in the solution.
