Best Answer

The density to tap water will vary with its temperature and the additives to the pure water. There is a table of densities of pure water vs. tap water atwww.simetric.co.uk/si_water.html. Note, however, that the latter does not list the composition of the tap water. Normally encountered pressures do not affect the density of pure or tap water significantly.

Distilled water is purified water that has no impurities or chemicals in it to preserve it or keep it clean.

Tap water depends on the area. When in a restaurants or other public places, the water should be filtered/purified because it's mandated by law. Tap water at home is normally safe. If you have a well that your tap water comes from then you may want to check it every once in a while, because sometimes, chemicals and other such things, that are in the earth or that are spilled or put in the earth can get into the well and contaminate the water. You don't have to check it every month, but if you know there is construction nearby or anything of the such, people moving in and fixing the house or oil spills or just anything like that, then you should check it.

Tap water has natural minerals in it, such as calcium and magnesium, which can leave deposits in you teapot and on your shower head, but are actually healthier for drinking. Depending on what minerals and other chemicals are in the tap water, it can taste much better than distilled water, which has a flat taste. If the tap water has a lot of iron or sulfur, it can have an unpleasant taste.

Hard water is water that naturally has more minerals. Naturally soft water has less. Softened water is hard water that has been treated with a water softener to take out the minerals, using a process that adds sodium from salt to the water. It's better for washing, but not so healthy or tasty for drinking.

How mineral water does differ from distilled water?

mineral water contains salts. Distilled water does not contain any salts, it's just water. And bottled water comes in a bottle. As a "food" item I expect it has to pass food safety standards, but otherwise it could be anything. Mineral water is water that has had minerals dissolved into it as a result of being stored underground. Spring water is mineral water for example. Depending on where the mineral water has come from effects the mineral content of the water. Distilled water on the other hand has been distilled. That mean it has been turned into steam, then the steam is allowed to cool turning it back into water in a clean container. What happens as a result is that only the water turns into steam leaving the mineral content behind giving you pure water with no mineral content.
