Ans: Tap water contains dissolved salts in it. These salts dissociates into ions when electricity passed through it which are responsible for the electricity conductivity of tap water. But distilled water does not contain any dissolved salts, so it does not conduct electricity.

Tap water conduct electricity because it contains impurities (salts of different compounds,which dissociate into ions) but distilled water is free of such impurities.
