What is formula for potassium choloride?
What is ' choloride;. I have never heard of it !!!! I think you mesn 'chloride'. The formula for potassium chloride is 'KCl'. NOT 'kcl'. Chemistry , like all sciences is very specific about its names & symbolism. So please make sure you spell names and write formula correctly, otherwise people do not know you meaning.
Does potassium that is dissolved in water conduct electricity?
Yes. Potassium metal when it reacts with water forms potassium hydroxide which is ionic and therefore conducts electricity. the vast majority of potassium salts are soluble and these conduct as they are ionic.
Why does potassium chloride conduct electricity?
Potassium chloride is an ionic solid, the ionic solids can conduct the electricity if they are in molten state or in aqueous solution.
Why does potassium chloride conduct electricity in aqueous solution?
its depends in the amount of potassium chloride.
What would happen to the solubility of potassium choloride in water as the water temperature increased from 25c to 75c?
Solubility increases nearly 1.5 times since the solubility is endothermic reaction in which enthalpy change is positive.

How does metals conduct electrisity?
Metals have lots of electrons that are fairly free to move between the atoms. Those electrons conduct electricity.
