Cobalt(II) chloride (CoCl₂) is not conductive in its solid form due to the lack of free-moving charged particles. However, when dissolved in water, it dissociates into cobalt ions and chloride ions, making the solution conductive. Therefore, while solid cobalt(II) chloride is an insulator, its aqueous solution can conduct electricity.
