3. Do distilled water conduct electricity? What will happen if we add sugar to it and then salt to it? Explain.

It cannot conduct electricity, however adding salt or sugar will make the water have impurities/other substance making it easier to conduct electricity

Explanation:

Distilled water by itself does not contain impurities, thus, it cannot conduct electricity.

When you put salt in water, the water molecules pull the sodium and chlorine ions apart so they are floating freely, increasing the conductivity.

For more information, please refer to the internet :D

Have fun studying, and goodluck!

If you are satisfied with this answer, please rate it or give brainliest.

• Distillate does not conduct electricity. This is because it lacks ions which may allow flow of electricity.

• If sugar is added to the distillate, it becomes a solution and contains ions which become mobile when electricity is passed through. Due to this mobility, the electrons are moved by these ions hence flow of current.
