Correct Option: C

The acid used in the electrolysis of water is dilute H2SO4 (sulfuric acid). Adding an electrolyte (like an acid or a base) increases the conductivity of the water. Sulfuric acid is a strong acid, and therefore it dissociates well in water, providing ions that allow the current to flow.
