Among distilled water, tap water, and ocean water, which will be the best electrical conductor and why?
Electrical conductivity: A solution conducts electricity due to the presence of ions in the solution. The higher the number of ions in the solution higher will be conductivity of the solution.
The conductivity of distilled water, tap water, and ocean water:
Distilled water:
Tap water:
Ocean water:
Hence out of distilled water, tap water, or seawater, seawater will be the best electrical conductor.
