Pure water is a poor conductor. But, the water that we use in our homes is not pure. Generally, tap water, pond water, and well water, etc, contain a lot of impurities, most of which are usually dissolved salts. The presence of even a small amount of impurities makes water a good conductor. Remember, getting an electric shock could result in very serious consequences, even death. So, always take care while operating electrical appliances.
Most acids and bases dissolved in water are good conductors of electricity. To test the electrical conductivity of two common acids, lemon juice and vinegar. When salts like sodium chloride (common salt), potassium iodide, etc, are heated, the molten salts so obtained are good conductors. Most substances that exist as liquids at room temperature, like alcohol, oils, etc. are bad conductors.
Moving charged particles are also referred to as charge carriers. In metals, which are good conductors, the charge carriers are a type of particles called electrons. In liquids, the charge carriers are generally ions. Atoms or a group of atoms with a positive or a negative charge are called ions. We dissolve a small quantity of common salt (sodium chloride, NaCI) in pure water. When salt dissolves in water, if forms ions of sodium and chlorine. An electric current will flow in the circuit. Such an arrangement is called an electrolytic cell. Pure water does not form enough ions to conduct electricity.

It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
