Pure water hardly conducts electricity at all. You have to dissolve a lot of
stuff in pure water to make it as good a conductor as the human body is.

Is water a better conductor than plastic?
No, water is not a better conductor of electricity than silver.Water can become a better conductor in acidic medium(by decreasing its pH). But it may split up into Hydrogen & Oxygen.
What is the purpose of salt in a buffer?
It serves to make the water a better conductor of electricity.
Is salt water a better conductor of electricity than aluminum foil and brass?
YES Metals are better conductors !
Is cold water best conductor of electricity?
No, but impure is a good conductor of electricity.
Which type of water conducts electricity salt water or fresh water?
Both conduct electricity well, however salt water is a better conductor due to ions available.
Is water a better conductor of electricity then silver?
no, water is NOT a better conductor of electricity then silver
Is water a better conductor than plastic?
No, water is not a better conductor of electricity than silver.Water can become a better conductor in acidic medium(by decreasing its pH). But it may split up into Hydrogen & Oxygen.
Is warmer or colder water a better conductor of electricity?
warm
Is plain water a conductor or insulator?
Plain distilled (or double distilled) water with no impurities is a poor conductor of electricity. The more impurities it has the better conductor it becomes
What is the purpose of salt in a buffer?
It serves to make the water a better conductor of electricity.
Why can a solution of salt water conduct electricity but a solid salt cannot?
Water is a better conductor.
Is salt water a better conductor of electricity than aluminum foil and brass?
YES Metals are better conductors !
Is cold water best conductor of electricity?
No, but impure is a good conductor of electricity.
Why water conducts good electricity?
Water is a poor conductor of electricity. However, the presence of ions in water make the solution a good conductor of electricity.
Which type of water conducts electricity salt water or fresh water?
Both conduct electricity well, however salt water is a better conductor due to ions available.
Why does lightning strike near water?
Lightning strikes strike near water because water is a good conductor of electricity. Most lightning strikes happen by the ocean because the salt makes it an even better conductor at electricity than fresh water.
Is water a conductor or an insilator of electricity?
a insilator of electricity
