MCQ
Lead pipe for supplying the drinking water are :
  • Not safe
  • B
    Quite safe
  • C
    May be safe for some countries
  • D
    Nothing can be said about it

Answer

Correct option: A.
Not safe
Lead pipes for supplying the drinking water are not safe. The lead concentration in drinking water should be below $\text{ETA}$ level of $15\ \text{ ppm}$. If we will use lead pipes, it will increase the lead concentration above critical level, hence, should not be used. Use of lead pipes were banned in year $1970$ due to safety purposes.
