Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity because it exists in solution as electrically neutral molecules. the molecules carry no electric charge and there are no ions in solution to carry charges.
Hope this helps,

Pure fresh water is a very bad conductor of electricity because there are very few ions in water.
Salt water, on the other hand, is a good conductor, because the positive sodium ions and the negative chlorine ions will carry an electric current. The more salt, the better.
Water does not conduct electricity as it does not ionize easily into hydrogen and hydroxyl ions. However water with salts that can ionize conducts electricity.
no water is good conductor of electricity
Because water is a conductor of electricity, allowing the power of the strike to reach you.
There are many liquids which are very bad conductors of electricity. these are basicall the type which are covalent in nature. examples: 1.)carbon tetrachloride, 2.)Benzene etc etc other organic fluids (fats etc) even pure water( i.e absolutely pure no impurity no contamination) is a good insulator.
No, but impure is a good conductor of electricity.
a insilator of electricity
there is no metal to conduct to.

zinc is a good conductor of electricity
glass, ceramic,diamond, are somtricitytte of the conductor of hear but bad conductor of electricity meher n sethna
no, water is NOT a better conductor of electricity then silver
Water breaks down to form hydrogen and oxygen when electricity is passed through it. Water is a bad conductor of electricity, so it is mixed with sulphuric acid or caustic soda to make it a good conductor of electricity.
in real, pure distilled water is a bad conductor of electricity.but if the water contains some amount of salt then it conducts to some extent.

Water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, the presence of ions in water make the solution a good conductor of electricity.
an insulator doesn't allows electricity pass from it, a bad conductor allows electricity to pass from it but not fully or completely and a semi conductor pass electricity in little form which used to operate electronics
