Answer:
Sulphuric Acid is added in the electrolysis of water to break water into its ions to conduct electricity.
Explanation:
Pure water on its own hardly conducts electricity because it ionizes feebly into ions. But when few drops of acid or base or very small quantity of a salt is added in water, it makes water to conduct electricity.
