Answer:

It wil swell and burst

Explanation:

"pure" water is only H2O so there are no solutes, because of osmosis, water will enter the red blood cell that does contain solutes until the cell and the surrounding environment (in this case the water) are iso-osmotic, this will never happen though because the water contains no solutes.
