It should be neutral, though in practice it might be slightly acidic because of small amounts of carbon dioxide may have been dissolved by uptake from air (forming weak dihydrogen carbonic acid) since it was destilled (pH about 6.5 to 6.9).

Is the solution Distilled Water acidic alkaline or neutral?

Distilled water is theoretically neutralDistilled water is water that has many of its impurities removed through distillation.Distillation involves boiling the water and then condensing the steam into a clean container.Hypothetically, distilled water should always be at a neutral pH 7. Immediately upon being exposed to air, however, distilled water's pH decreases and becomes more acidic. Neutralizing distilled water is possible, but its neutral pH does not last.
