Is water an insulator or conductor?
Pure water (distilled water) is an insulator. Generally we think of water as a conductor because there are impurity ions in the water, such as tap water. Pure water can't be called a conductor, but it can also conduct electricity.
Can water be used as an insulator?
Pure water is an insulator, but in the "real world", water usually has impurities - notably ions - that actually make it a good conductor. This is theory; I don't think it is practical to use water as an insulator.

Is water an a good 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 water a insulator o a conductor?
"Pure water" is an insulator, but real water has impurities which if ionized make it a conductor.
Is pure water is a conductor or insulator?
pure water is an insulator.

Why pure water is considered as insulator?
Yes! Pure distilled water is an insulator. it is the minerals, alkali's and acids in the contaminates that determine the resistivity of water!

How conductivity of water related with concentration?
pure water is insulator.
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 'dirty water' a good conductor or insulator?
yes water is a good conductor
