No because for electrolysis to take place, an electrolyte or ions like table salt ( NaCl ) is needed. But in distilled water there are no ions or electrolytes. Hence electrolysis cannot take place in distilled water.

Electrolysis requires ions in water to conduct electricity. Distilled water lacks ions, so it has very low conductivity and does not support electrolysis. Adding a small amount of electrolyte (such as salt) to distilled water increases its conductivity, enabling electrolysis to occur.
Distilled water is not a base.
Which of these is a demonstration of a chemical change? A. ice melting into water B. wood becomes charred and black from burning C. water evaporates from a sugar solution, leaving behind sugar crystals D. a balloon suddenly popping
Battery charging depletes hydrogen ions in both lead-acid batteries and Edison batteries. This reduces the liquid levels, because the hydrogen turns to a gas and dissipates into the atmosphere. This needs to be replaced with distilled water. When the hydrometer indicates the acid density has dropped below 1.2 (20% heavier than water) then the acid needs to be replaced in the battery.
Distilled water is pure.

silver; gold; platinum
Yes. Essentialy deionized and distilled water are the same because distilled water is just water that has all ions taken out and therefore wont carry and electrical charge.
no.
No, water does not have to be warm for electrolysis to occur. However, increasing the temperature can help improve the efficiency of the process by reducing the energy required for the reaction to take place.
because distilled water does not have any dissolved salts in it
Yes, distilled water can be electrolysed. Water always contains a few hydrated hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions from self ionization. There can also be some chloride ions because hydrogen chloride can distil over with water. However, the concentration of ions is extremely low so electrolysis is very slow.
No, distilled water is distilled water.
Distilled water is not used as an electrolyte because it does not contain enough ions to facilitate the flow of electricity in an electrolytic cell. Without ions present in the water, the conductivity necessary for electrolysis to occur is greatly reduced. Addition of electrolytes like salts can help improve the conductivity of water in electrolytic cells.
Distilled water is not a base.
Water can be toxic if the person poisons the water in the first place or you are not drinking distilled water and you get lead into your body and die.
You should not drink distilled water as it lacks minerals which are beneficial for us.Make a solution of the salt in distilled water.
