Solution

The correct option is C Mineral water contains dissolved salts.
Mineral water contains dissolved salts necessary for our body and is fir for drinking.

Distilled water, on the other hand, is very pure and is devoid of minerals necessary for our body. This causes the minerals in our body to dissolve in the distilled water. Hence, it is harmful for dirnking.
