Step-by-step explanation:

Metallic bonds do conduct electricity. Ionic compounds conduct electricity when melted and dissolved in water. They form ions and the cations and anions can conduct electricity when they are free to move in the solution. While covalent compounds dissolve into molecules and they don't conduct electricity.

Answer: Covalent.
