There are some tests had to be made for making sure that the water is 100% pure.
1. Physical test.
• Test : boiling water .
• Positive result : boils at 100 degree.
• Negative result : boils at more 100 degree

Chemical test :
1. Anhydrous copper II sulfate turns from white to blue when water is added (exothermic).
CuSO4 + 5H2O = CuSO4.5H2O
2. Anhydrous cobalt II chloride turns from blue to pink when water or an aqueous solution is added (exothermic )
CoCl2 + 6H2O = CoCl2.6H2O
