Describe one chemical test and one physical test for pure water.

A physical test for pure water is testing the boiling or freezing point. Pure water will boil at 100 degrees Celsius and freeze at 0 degrees Celsius. One chemical test is to use cobalt chloride paper - the paper will turn from blue to pink in the presence of water.
