Tap
Most of the time yes it's safe but at other times no. Many studies have concluded that water from a properly run municipal system is as safe as bottled water. In many cases water bottlers simply use the municipal system as a the source of water for their bottled product.
Tap water and bottled water both come from a water source, but they are not exactly the same. Tap water is regulated by the government and usually contains added fluoride for dental health. Bottled water is regulated by the FDA and tends to be filtered or from a natural source, but it can vary in quality.
Simply because it's unregulated !... Not ALL bottled water is from a pure source !
That all depends on where it was bottled and what source was used.
Bottled water began in the mid '80s. The bottled water market really boomed between 1990 and present day. Bottling water made water a market source allowing for a healthy alternative to bottled sodas and other similar products.
There is an old couple in Pittsburg that fills the bottles in their bathtub.
Depends on what company you're comparing tap water to. But most bottled water companies use filtered water (the same as tap water). In most cases bottled water is not purer than tap water. Note that tap water is not the same everywhere, not are all brands of bottled water the same. But legal requirements for water purity are the same for tap water as for bottled water. In some cases, bottled water actually is tap water, that has simply been taken from the tap and put into bottles.
The normal pH of bottled water typically ranges from 6.5 to 8.5. This range reflects the natural acidity or alkalinity of the water, depending on its source and mineral content. Most bottled waters are slightly acidic to neutral, with many brands aiming for a pH around 7.0. However, variations can occur based on the specific brand and its processing methods.
bottled, because it has less minerals to be evaporated. ANSWER: Whatever water has the most contaminants since that does not evaporate
It's about the same. Most bottled water IS tap water, so any chemicals and weird stuff in tap water are in bottled water too.

Yes, bottled water passes most sanitary requirements. On the other hand, you shouldn't drink tap water nor water from any untreated source (i.e: rivers or wells).
