Solution

The correct option is A

True


Conductors are materials which allow electricity to flow through them. Saline water has salt content which acts as an impurity. On addition of impurity, conductivity of material increases. Hence it is more conducting than pure water.

Note: Pure water is a bad conductor of electricity.
