What happens to the electric conductance of an electrochemical conductor and metallic conductor with increase in temperature?

  • The kinetic energy of the ions increases as the temperature rises, causing them to travel quicker and conduct their carrying charge faster, resulting in enhanced conductivity. As a result, the conductivity of electrolytic conductors increases as the temperature rises.
