Question

Pure water is neutral to litmus.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Pure or de-ionized water contains only $H_{2}O$ that exist in the equilibrium as :

$H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons H^{+}+O{H}^{-}$

Thus, number of cations and anions are equal and that makes the pure water neutral. This do not give any litmus paper test.

Therefore, option A is correct.
