  • PH of water

    Why distilled or purified water bottle has pH 5.68

    Tap water has pH 7.02

    PH were measured by using pH-200.

    So tap water is more purified than distilled or purified water bottle that can be found at food store?

      pH of pure water is 7?

      Can you explain? Thanks

        and pH 7 does not define pure water. Dissolved CO2 as carbonate ion lowers pH. There many parameters that address “purity”. pH is not necessarily one of them
