Solution
The correct option is
B
False
Electrical conductivity is the measure of the capability of the material to pass the current through it.
This ability of conductance in water is directly proportional to the concentration of the ions present in the water.
Distilled water is a pure type of water that does not contain any ions in it, so it will not conduct electricity.
Thus, the given statement is
false.
