No. Boiling water will not remove fluoride. Distilling it will.
The two hydrogen-oxygen bonds in a water molecule allow it to form more hydrogen bonds with adjacent molecules than hydrogen fluoride can with its one hydrogen-fluorine bond. As a result, water has a stronger attraction between molecules.
The boiling point of tap water is higher than that of distilled water because tap water contains many minerals and bacteria that have higher boiling points than of water in its natural state and thus they collectively increase the boiling point of water. I would suggest researching the boiling points of substances in tap water such as nitrate, chlorine, fluoride, led, etc. because these substances are not in distilled water.
No. Boiling can kill off biological stuff, parasites, bacteria, things like that. But it can't do anything about about chemicals. In cases of organic or inorganic chemicals with high boiling points the boiling may concentrate the contaminants.
Add silver nitrate solution. flouride is precipitated as silver fluoride
boiling
no
But merely boiling the water will not eliminate the fluoride and can in fact concentrate it because you have the same amount of fluoride in less water. You can distill the water. Meaning you can boil the water then capture the steam, which will be pure. But the process is expensive. You need special filters to remove the fluoride.
Distillation does remove at least some fluoride - this is why a dentist will recommend fluoride treatment at your 6-month dental cleaning if you drink distilled or filtered water. However, to get all the fluoride out the water would have to be deionized.
No. Boiling water kills bacteria but does not remove most chemicals.
Only filters that use reverse osmosis or activated alumina are effective at removing fluoride from tap water. "Brita" filters do not remove fluoride. Source: http://www.ewg.org/EWGFAQ#
no it does not how ever it does clean bacterium from the water and other contaminants

No. That requires a special filter.
yes
Yes , almost all the chlorine.
Boiling the water will sterilize it. However, it can't remove chemicals from the water.
People usually use tongs to remove ears of corn from pots of boiling water.
