A tester is used to check the conduction of electricity through two liquids, labeled $A$ and $B$. It is found that the bulb of the tester glows brightly for liquid $A$ while it glows very dimly for liquid $B$. You would conclude that:

A
liquid $A$ is a better conductor than liquid $B$
💡 Explanation:
The amount of current flowing through a conducting solution depends on the conductivity of the solution. More the conductivity, more current passes through the solution and vice-versa. Hence, the conductivity of liquid $A$ is more than the conductivity of liquid $B$.
