Detailed Solution

Impure water is taken as an electrolyte in electrolysis because it is a good conductor.
A good conductor must have a lot of ions present in it to carry the current. For example, impure water is a good conductor of electricity. This is because it contains a lot of impurities in the form of salts and acids in it. When water is passed with electricity, the impurities like salts and acids separate into their ions. The discharge of ions is enough to conduct electricity through the solution.
