what is de-ionized water?

856 viewsChemistryOther

I’m confused if it is a marketing term or if it’s a real way to make safe drinking water? If you distill water you are physically removing contaminants, which makes sense that it is safe to drink. De-ionizing is like removing ions, but what does that mean, is the water now cleaner?

You know how spirits are distilled and filtered from a mixture of certain things and you end up with alcohol.

Well if you do that with tap water, you get just water… With no minerals or any other deposits in it.

In a manner of speaking, yes.
