Is demineralised or distilled water useful for drinking purpose? If not, how can it be made useful?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Demineralised or distilled water does not contain any caton or anion, and hence even the useful ions or minerals are missing. Hence, it is not useful for drinking purposes. To make it useful for drinking purposes, addition of useful minerals in adequate amounts should be done.
