Solution

The correct option is B False

Explanation:

  1. Pure water is a weak electrolyte as it does not have enough ions, so cannot be used in electrolysis.
  2. It does not have free ions or electrons, so it cannot dissociate to conduct electricity.

Hence pure water will not complete the circuit, the statement is false.
