What else can I help you with?
Can distilled water be considered as an electrolyte?
No. Pure water will not conduct electricity.
Does distilled water conduct water?
distilled water is pure H20 therefore there are no minerals or other crap in it that will conduct electricity. although technically you can run a very high voltage circuit with few amps through the few ions it has, it will not conduct a circuit your thinking of, so no :)
Does water conduct battery electricity?
It doesn't conduct electricity if it is pure water as there are no flowing ions. But in un-pure water electricity can be conducted.
Is water a good conductor or insulator of electricity?
Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, water can conduct electricity if it contains impurities or if it has a high concentration of ions. Distilled water and pure water do not conduct electricity well.
Why does current flow through impure water and not through pure distilled water?
Water is actually an insulator and does not pass electricity well, the minerals within the water are what actually conduct the current and thus in distilled water there is no conduction
Is distilled water an electrolyte?
Distilled water isn't really considered an electrolyte. Because it has been distilled, the water has had all its ions removed. No ions means no electrolytic properties. And before you jump on it, yes, there will still be some H+ and OH- ions in pure water. But water, if it's pure, won't conduct electricity and won't be considered an electrolyte.
Does pure water conduct any electricity at all?
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.
Why does distilled not conduct electricity whereas rainwater does?
For a material to conduct electricity it needs to have free charge carriers. I.e. particles with charge that can move around the material. Distilled water, or pure water only contains H2O molecules, which are neutral. Rainwater on the other hand also contains other materials such as salt, which in water falls apart into positive and negative ions. These are serviceable charge carriers, and therefore rainwater can conduct electricity.

Can water be an electricity conductor?
Pure distilled water is not a good conductor of electricity. It is the impurities in water (usually salts) that conduct electricity. In fact, the conductivity of a sample of water can be used to measure the concentration of salts in the water sample.
What liquid doesn't conduct electricity?
Oil doesn't conduct electricity. If you're looking to do something such as create a liquid cooling system, oil such as vegetable oil is a great option.
What is the best insulator of electricity copper aluminum distilled water or tap water?
Distilled water is the best insulator of electricity among the options provided. This is because it is a pure form of water without any impurities or minerals that can conduct electricity. Copper and aluminum are conductive materials, while tap water contains impurities that can make it conductive.
