Solution

When dilute H2SO4 is added to water, the water becomes a good electrolyte. Hence, electricity passes through it.

When a little dilute sulphuric acid is mixed with water, a large number of hydrogen ions is formed due to the dissociation of H2SO4 into H+ ions, which allows the electricity to pass through water.
