Raw water is also known as what?

• A. Distilled water
• B. Fresh water
• C. Sea water
• D. Condensed water

Answer: (C)

Raw water means water in its natural, untreated state, not yet purified or processed. Among the options, sea water fits this idea because it’s water from the ocean before any desalination or other treatment. The other choices describe water that has been purified or transformed: distilled water is water that has been boiled and condensed to remove impurities; fresh water refers to water with low salinity that’s typically treated to be potable; condensed water is water formed by condensation of vapor. So sea water is the unprocessed form, making it the best choice.
