Best Answer

The boiling point of tap water is higher than that of distilled water because tap water contains many minerals and bacteria that have higher boiling points than of water in its natural state and thus they collectively increase the boiling point of water. I would suggest researching the boiling points of substances in tap water such as nitrate, chlorine, fluoride, led, etc. because these substances are not in distilled water.

Cholera is a water born bacterial infection - therefore it is POSSIBLE to get it from contaminated tap water. However, in most countries utility tap water is treated to remove/kill off any harmful organisms and is safe to drink.
