Question

Tap water is a good conductor of electricity while distilled water is not because


1.Tap water contain salts
2.Distilled water do not contain salt
3.Only 1 is correct
4.Both 1 & 2 is correct

Answer 1

Answer:

option 1

Explanation:

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

Answer 2

Answer:

A

Explanation:

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.
