    Solution:

    The above statement is true.
    An acidic solution conducts electricity. Pure acids are extremely bad electrical conductors when they are liquid. It is undeniable proof that ions exist in aqueous solutions of acids because these solutions transmit electricity. In an aqueous solution, acids dissociate to produce H+ ions. The H+ ions reach the cathode when electricity is applied to an acidic aqueous solution, where each H+ ion accepts an electron from the cathode to create H2 gas. An aqueous solution of acid conducts electricity as a result of this reaction.
