Is tap water a conductor?

Yes, as it has small amounts of salts dissolved it has ions permitting it to conduct. Completely deionized water however doesn't conduct, it is an insulator. But you won't get deionized water from your tap unless you have a reverse osmosis device in the line.


Which the highest conductivity between tap water and deionized water and why?

Tap Water has higher conductivity compared to deionized water since it has more mineral/ salts. Deionized water has less/ no minerals to conduct electrical current. One can experiment this in a your Water Fuel Cell using deionized water, tap water and water with salts like (KOH or NaOH) or sea water.Nitinwww.HydroxyGarage.comWater Fuel Technology is Here !!!


How do water conduct electricity?

Water can conduct electricity. I know this because when it rains water can spin a turbine which power electricity from movement


Would conduct electricity mixed with water?

A water solution containing ions conduct electricity.


What mixes with water that can conduct electricity?

An ionic compound dissolved in water is an electrolyte and can conduct electricity.


Does pure water conduct any electricity at all?

No, pure water does not conduct electricity because there are no other solutions present. For the water to conduct electricity, there has to be an electrolyte. Salt water, Tap water, and sugar water do conduct a little electricity because they contain soluble ionic compounds.


Does water conduct battery electricity?

It doesn't conduct electricity if it is pure water as there are no flowing ions. But in un-pure water electricity can be conducted.


If a live wire were dropped into a pool of deionized water you were swimming in would you be electrocuted?

Really depends on the voltage of the live wire. Thought the water is "deionized," water can self-ionize with the equation: 2H2O <==> H3O+ + OH- Thus even though the water is deionized, if the voltage is high enough, it will ionize the water and the water will conduct electricity, thus if the voltage is high enough, you would be electrocuted. But it is not a good idea to try. That's the best way to FRY yourself and start pushing up daisys rather quickly.


Would conduct electricity when mixed with water?

A water solution containing ions conduct electricity.


Does baking soda and water conduct electricity?

Yes, When Baking Soda is dissolved in water it will conduct electricity


Can electricity pass through water?

Yes. With great difficulty if the water is totally pure. Much easier if there are impurities/minerals in the water. Like gangbusters with a pinch of salt added to the water.


What is the link between water that contains other substance and is ability to conduct electricity?

pure water does not conduct electricity. the presence of electrolytes in the water is what conducts electricity. the equation for the conductivity (ability to conduct electricity) Conductance = 1/ resistance
