Answer:
No
Explanation:
To be a strong electrolyte it must ionize into its constituent ion but in case of pure water, it ionizes very slightly into its ions making it a weak electrolyte. Hence the pure water is not a strong electrolyte because of its strong hydrogen bonding.

- The electrons cannot be transferred from one end to the other end of pure water molecules because there aren't enough ions in them.
- Water is a poor electrolyte due to this characteristic.
- Pure water ionises extremely minimally into its ions, making it a weak electrolyte.
- As a result of its high hydrogen bonding, pure water is not an effective electrolyte.
