Question
Chapter 19, Problem 18TE
To determine
The reason why distilled water is very good for drinking and does not leach the minerals from the body.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 18TE
The distilled water is good for drinking and does not leach the minerals from the body as the distilled water loses its purity once mixed with the contents in the stomach.
Explanation of Solution
The distilled water is pure as it is obtained by boiling the water and then condensing the vapours. The harmful components are removed, so it is pure for drinking.
When the pure distilled water is consumed, it gets mixed with the saliva in the mouth. After reaching in the stomach, it gets mixed with the acid in the stomach. As a result, it does not remain in its pure form. So, it cannot leach the minerals from the body.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the distilled water is good for drinking and does not leach the minerals from the body as the distilled water loses its purity once mixed with the contents in the stomach.
