Solution

The correct option is C Mineral water contains dissolved salts.
Mineral water contains dissolved salts so it is preferred over distilled water for drinking. Mineral water is water from a mineral spring that contains various minerals, such as salts and sulfur compounds. Mineral water may be effervescent or "sparkling" due to contained gases.
