What conducts electricity when mixed with water?
Water in general is a good conductor of electricity. Anything wet will therefore be a good conductor (this makes it dangerous to get certain things wet).Actually, pure (distilled) water is not a good conductor; the fact that water usually IS a good conductor is due to diverse substances dissolved in water, such as salts - the ions make the water a good conductor.
Is cold water best conductor of electricity?
No, but impure is a good conductor of electricity.
Does liquid conduct electricity well?
It depends on the liquid. Oil would not be a good conductor of electricity. Water is a good conductor, though distilled water is not. Any liquid metal or ionic compound would be a good conductor.
Is terelyne a good conductor of electricity?
No, terylene is not a very good conductor of electricity.
Is water a better conductor of electricity than human body?
Pure water hardly conducts electricity at all. You have to dissolve a lot of stuff in pure water to make it as good a conductor as the human body is.

Why is sulphuric acid used in electrolysis of water?
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.
Why water conducts good electricity?
Water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, the presence of ions in water make the solution a good conductor of electricity.
Is cold water best conductor of electricity?
No, but impure is a good conductor of electricity.
How is water a good conductor of electricity or is it not?
No, water is not a good conductor of electricity. Check related link below for more information.
