Is water a insulator o a conductor?

"Pure water" is an insulator, but real water has impurities which if ionized make it a conductor.


Is water an insulator or conductor?

Water is a poor conductor of electricity due to the low concentration of ions present in it. However, impurities or dissolved minerals in water can increase its conductivity to some extent. Generally, water is considered more as an insulator than a conductor compared to metals or salts.


How would you classify water as an electrical conductor?

Pure water is a insulator, however if there are ions in the water it becomes an excellent conductor.


Is salt a conductor or insulator?

Is water a conductor or non conductor?

100% Pure water is not a conductor (insulator) However, please remember, minerals in not 100% pure water are conductors and there are about 10 million minerals in 1 cup of water. It can electrify you. So becareful.


Is a water an insulator?

No. Pure water isn't a very good conductor, but it's not an insulator either. Water with dissolved minerals ranges from an indifferent to pretty decent conductor ... not as good as most metals, but not too shabby.

Is the water a conductor or an insulator?

Water is a fair conductor of electricity due to the presence of dissolved ions and minerals. However, pure water is a poor conductor as it lacks ions necessary for conducting electricity.


Is water a conductor water or an insulator?

It depends. Pure water do not conduct electric current; on the other hand, we consider tap and river water as a conductor because of the ions of the decomposed materials in the water. Water transmits electricity, heat, and sound very well, so it is a conductor. An insulator would not transmit electricity, heat, or sound well.
