Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Electricity is defined as the flow of electrons or electric charges. Ions are charged particles which have either lost or gained electrons. In the case of distilled water, all the essential minerals and ions which conduct electricity are removed. Herby, it acts as an insulator. Hence, distilled water is a bad conductor of electricity.
The correct statement would be that the distilled water does not conduct electricity.
