Solution

The correct option is D Distilled water
Distilled water doesn't contain any salt that is electrolyte so it doesn't help in the motion of ions carrying charge with it. Thus, distilled water can't conduct electricity.
Though tap water which contain salts like NaCl, MgCl2 can be considered as an electrolyte.
