Solution

The correct option is C

Rainwater


Explanation for correct option:

Option (C) Rainwater

Purest form of water:

  • Rainwater is the purest form of water.
  • The rainwater directly comes from the condensation of water in the presence of the sun.
  • The water evaporates from the lakes/rivers/seas. During the vaporization process, the impurities get removed, and then waterfalls directly into the earth in the form of rain.
  • Rainwater is naturally distilled water that contains no minerals.

Explanation for incorrect options:

Water from well, bore water, as well as tap water, is not considered pure water as they contain certain ions as well as minerals while rainwater is free from minerals as it directly comes from rain.

Thus options A, B, and D are incorrect.

Hence, the correct option is (C).
