Pure water does not conduct electricity. However, since it is almost impossible to have pure water, anything wet will normally conduct electricity. Water almost always has some salts in it, and that provides the free electrons required to conduct electricity.

Is heavy water conductive?
Pure heavy water is practically not conductive.
How conductive is brass?
Brass is conductive. It's an alloy of copper and zinc, both of which conduct electricity ( pure copper is better, though).
Is copper conductor?
Yes, it is highly conductive.
Would an ionic or covalent compound be more conductive in water when dissolved Explain?
An ionic compound dissociated in water is an electrolyte and is of course more conductive..
What does salt do in the electrolysis of water?
It will make the water more conductive and this how it works.......... =)
What is a highly conductive metal?
A highly conductive metal is one where the availability of electron flow is high. Examples are copper, silver, aluminum, etc.
Is heavy water conductive?
Pure heavy water is practically not conductive.
Why pure air is not a conductive compare to pure water?
The ultrapure water is not conductive.
How conductive is brass?
Brass is conductive. It's an alloy of copper and zinc, both of which conduct electricity ( pure copper is better, though).
Is water a conductor of electricity and why?
Water itself in it's purist form is not a conductor of electricity, but minerals in the water make it highly conductive. So in short the only answer anyone should be concerned with is "Yes". I hope this helps.
Is copper conductor?
Yes, it is highly conductive.
Is water bad conductor?
Pure water, consisting of only h2o molecules is a very weak, if at all, conductor of electricity. However, if it is not purified, or if there is something else in it, like say, your hand, it becomes highly conductive.
When iron is mixed in water is it conductive?
yes
Would an ionic or covalent compound be more conductive in water when dissolved Explain?
An ionic compound dissociated in water is an electrolyte and is of course more conductive..

Why shouldn't you do electrical work on an aluminium ladder?
Aluminum is highly conductive and creates an electrical pathway to ground.
Is acetaminophen conductive in water?
NO if it is you have a dirty experiment tray.
