The video tutorial demonstrates an experiment on electrical conductivity using a bulb, pure water, and a substance. Initially, the bulb does not light up, indicating that pure water is a poor conductor. Upon adding a substance, the bulb lights up, showing improved conductivity. The teacher concludes the experiment by asking students to identify the substance from given options: glucose, sucrose, monosodium glutamate, or table salt.
