The '-eza' suffix
In Spanish, many nouns that describe a quality end in '-eza' (like 'pobreza' for poverty). These words are almost always feminine, so you should use 'la' or 'una'.
Abstract versus Physical
Even though 'pureza' describes a quality, it functions just like 'water' or 'gold' in a sentence; you can measure it or describe how much of it there is.
Gender confusion
Mistake: “el pureza”
Correction: la pureza (because words ending in -eza are feminine).
Spelling with 's'
Mistake: “puresa”
Correction: pureza (Spanish words ending in the -eza sound for qualities are spelled with a 'z').
