6. Place about 0.2 g of solid calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) into a small, clean beaker and test the conductivity. Add 5 mL distilled water to the calcium carbonate; test the conductivity of the solution. Dispose this solution in the sink and rinse the beaker. 7. Use 5 mL of each of the following in 100-mL beaker to test the conductivities.

All materials will conduct electricity to some extent be it well or poorly. It also depends on what form the material is in. As a solid, calcium carbonate is a poor conductor compared to metals. In solution as ions it is as good a conductor as most salt solutions.
