Only in the host part,all the bits will be 1.
For,192.168.1.0/24 network
subnet mask will be 255.255.255.0
Broadcast address will be 192.168.1.255
Now, we shell convert the broadcast address into binary
192 in Binary- 11100000
168 in Binary- 10101000
1 in Binary- 00000001
255 in binary- 11111111
So only in the host part all bits will be 1.

That's correct for an IP network broadcast (or directed broadcast). A full IP broadcast all bits are 1.
For,192.168.1.0/24 network
On such a network, you might try:
ping 192.168.1.255
or
ping 255.255.255.255
