The water potential of pure water is:
Correct answer: A. Zero
- A. Zero
- B. One
- C. Infinity
- D. Negative
Explanation
The water potential of pure water is defined as having a value of zero. Pure water at a standard atmospheric pressure and temperature is used as the reference point for calculating the water potential of other solutions. Other solutions have a lower water potential than pure water due to factors such as solute concentration and pressure.
