A water solution containing ions conduct electricity.
No, sugar does not conduct electricity because it can not ionize, so it does not carry a charge.(in the matter of dissolving it in water!)
Salt
Apple juice
All acids conduct electricity except when they are dry

For a fluid to conduct electricity, it must contain ions. Ions carry electrons through the fluid, making the fluid a conductor. Sugar (C6H12O6) does not conduct electricity because the molecule is non-polar. When it is mixed with water, no ions are formed because water, a polar molecule, will not dissolve this compound by the principle "like dissolves like". Because there are no ions in this mixture, sugar will not conduct electricity.

No, pure water does not conduct electricity because there are no other solutions present. For the water to conduct electricity, there has to be an electrolyte. Salt water, Tap water, and sugar water do conduct a little electricity because they contain soluble ionic compounds.
