Solution

Hi

Distilled water is the water which is free of impurities such as metals, germs etc. But distilled water should not be mistaken for mineral water and is also not meant for drinking purpose. Distilled water is used in biological and chemical laboratories where high purity of water is required. During distilliation, fresh water is boiled and then the steam is collected and condensed to form pure water.

Cheers!
