Definently. Have you ever drank water that tasted a bit more like blood than h20? That's because in your blood there is lots of iron and its the same thing with that glass of water u had
Tap water contains dissolved oxygen and other minerals that can accelerate the rusting process of iron nails. When iron is exposed to water and oxygen, a chemical reaction occurs called corrosion, leading to the formation of iron oxide (rust) on the surface of the nails.
Salt water is a more conductive solution than tap water, which accelerates the electrochemical process of iron oxidation (rusting). The chloride ions in salt water can also react with the iron to form more rust at a faster rate compared to tap water.
you really should pay attention in class
I have heard that bottled water is better for plant growth because tap water has too much iron in it.
An iron nail will rust faster in saltwater than in tap water. This is because saltwater is conductive and accelerates the rusting process by promoting the flow of electrons between the iron nail and oxygen in the water.
Tap water has vitamins in it, Iron and such.... Some tap water is bad too there is some tap water depending which area you live in have to much arsenic in it and will kill your plants. Your town should have a water survey you can find at your local library.
Usually tap water contains iron, zinc and fluroide, The government adds these chemicals to the water to increase iron and zinc rates within the bodies and because fluroide is good for the teeth, this makes the water healthier than bottled water.
In our tap water, you can find minerals such as: sodium, potassium, manganese , iron, copper and calcium. The chemicals are typically just chlorine and fluorine. :)
In tap water, you will most likely find iron. In distilled or deionized water, no.
Tap water becomes dangerous if the amount of chemicals in it gets too high. Metals such as lead, iron, cadmium, and arsenic can be found in tap water. Chemicals such as nitrate, mercury, and fluoride can also be found. Tap water can contain microorganisms like bacteria or parasites that make you sick.
If your tap water is high in iron or sulphur, then the candy color certainly can be affected. If this is an issue you might use distilled water. Bottled water typically suffers the same defects, at it is bottled tap water kept inside a plastic chemical bottle.
If tap water turns a deep red color with a few drops of potassium thiocyanate (KSCN), it indicates the presence of iron(III) cations (Fe3+).
