Solution

The correct option is B False
The given statement is false, because pure water is not a good conductor of electricity. Because water itself isn't a conductor. It i the presence of salts in an impure water that makes it conductive. But in pure water, it has all salts removed from it and therefore, pure water is then devoid of free ions and hence not a good conductor.
