उत्तर

This statement is false.

Explanation:

An aqueous solution of an ionic compound conducts electricity due to the presence of free-moving ions, not free electrons. When the compound dissolves in water, it splits into positive and negative ions. These mobile ions act as charge carriers that move toward opposite electrodes to conduct the electric current.
