Will addition of sodium hydroxide in distilled water make it non-electrolyte

Actually, distilled water is purest form of water and contains only (H₂O) and no other mineral or salts are present in it which could conduct electricity or ions as in normal tap water.

Here the pure H₂O is a covalent compound where no salt or ions are present to conduct electricity. Hence, the distilled water is a non electrolyte

But the addition of NaOH makes distilled water to get their lost minerals back and results in formation of electrolyte.


Answer is ELECTROLYTE.
