purified water does not have acid in it. If it does it is really bad for you

Water itself is not composed of just H2O, its is actually a solution at equilibrium where H20 decomposes to create OH- ions and H3O ions and these products reform to make water again.

The measurement of an acid or a base (pH) is the concentration of Hydronium ions in a solution. Water is a neutral solution so it has a concentration of 1x10-7 mol/L. An acid will have a greater concentration of hydronium while a basic solution will have a lower concentration.

Water, upon sitting out, will absorb CO2 from the air and form carbonic acid (H2CO3).

Yeah, 'cause acid can be of any substance in water solution that tastes sour, changes litmus paper colour, reacts with bases and metals to form salts and to yield hydrogen gas respectively.
