No. Pure water does not conduct electricity because it does not have free electrons or ions to conduct electricity. Pure water can conduct electricity when a pinch of common salt is added to it, as salt solution is conducting in nature.

No. Pure water does not conduct electricity. Pure water does not contain any ions which make it conducting. But it can conduct electricity when a pinch of common salt is added to it, as salt solution is conducting in nature.
