An electric current can be made simply by dipping two different metals into the salt water so that they are not touching each other. You can try this with a "copper" coin and a "silver" coin and measure a small voltage between them using a voltmeter, but you will get a better result by using a piece of pure copper and a piece of pure zinc which should give a voltage of about 1 volt.

Does salt water flowing through a pipe constitute an electric current?

No, salt water flowing through a pipe by itself does not constitute an electric current. Electric current requires the movement of charged particles, such as electrons, in a closed circuit. Salt water can conduct electricity only if there are free ions present in the water to carry the charge.


Is salt conductive in water?

Yes, salt is conductive in water because it dissociates into ions that can carry an electric current.
