Conductivity of an electrolyte

[hackhard]

I know that electric conductivity of metallic conductors increases with decrease in its absolute temperature(kelvin) . But is it the same for electrolytes such as water. Is cold water a better or worse conductor of electricity than warm water at same pressure and concentration.

 

[Lord Jestocost]

The electric conductivity of liquid electrolytes increases with temperature as the ion mobilities generally increase with increasing temperature. As a rough estimate, the ion mobilities are inversely proportional to the viscosity of the liquid.
