Dissolved Substances
Dissolved substances
Dissolved substances exist in water as dissolved ions, molecules, or similar forms.
In context
Unlike visible particles, they can be present in clear water. Ordinary particle filtration or settling does not remove all dissolved substances.
Example
Clear saltwater helps illustrate the difference between appearance and composition. Verify actual water quality using parameters and methods suited to its intended use.
Key distinction
Clarity does not mean absence of substances or permission to drink.
