Solution

The correct option is A

Good conductor


Correct option is A: Good conductor

Explanation:

  1. Common salt transforms distilled water into an electrical conductor.
  2. Distilled water, which has no contaminants, is incapable of conducting even the tiniest quantity of electricity.
  3. When we add ordinary salt or sodium chloride to distilled water, however, it becomes electrically conductible.
  4. Sodium and chlorine ion makes it to conduct electricity.

Hence option A is correct
