In the process of distillation, during condesation the temperature of water decreases Hence absorption of CO2 takes place and some H2CO3 is formed. This is an acid (though very weakly) so water turns acidic. Double distillation enhance this so theoritical pH is 7.0 but practically less than 7.0 (6.2 to 6.8)
Distilled water is not a base.
Solution of baking soda is basic.
Theoretically any system in which both the acid/base and its conjugate are present can be used as a buffer. Since pure water has hydroxyl and hydronium ions present at 10-7 M it can be technically called a buffering system. However, since the concentrations are so small and water offers practically no buffering capacity and in a common sense water is not used as a buffer for any reactions, only as a solvent.
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.

No, distilled water is not a buffer. A buffer is an aqueous solution consisting of a mixture of a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid.

Distilled water is neutral, with a pH of 7. This means it is neither acidic nor basic.
Distilled water is not a base.
A battery contains a mixture of around 35% Sulfuric acid and 65% Distilled Water.
Distilled water is neutral in nature. It is neither acidic nor basic and has a pH of 7.
Burning sulfur in air sulfur dioxide is formed; this gas dissolved in water form an acidic solution.
Removing CO2 from distilled water is important because it can react with water to form carbonic acid, which can alter the pH of the water. This can affect experiments or applications that require water with a specific pH level. Additionally, removing CO2 helps prevent unwanted reactions in sensitive systems or equipment.
Distilled water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is neither acidic nor basic, as it contains no ions to contribute to its acidity or basicity.
