What method can be used to separate pure water from sea water?
There are numerous ways to separate salt from water. The easiest way is by distillation. Boil the saltwater in a pot with a lid slightly offset. As the water runs down the side, collect it in a separate container.
Why does distillation work for converting seawater to fresh water?
Distillation is a process of purification by means of heating, often to boiling to a gas, then cooling back into a liquid. In this process, the salt doesn't even melt until the water's already a gas, and as such is left over during the boiling.
What islands separate the US and Russia?
The Aleutians.
What does fractional distillation mean in chemistry?
Fractional distillation is a manufacturing process that separates the different components (i.e. fractions 1/2 in a chemical mixture according to their different boiling points. The liquid is raised to boiling and vapors pass through a tubular column where temperature is gradually lowered along its length. Components (fractions) with a higher boiling point condense on the column and return to the solution. Fractions with a lower boiling point pass through the column and are collected. Gasoline, kerosene and naphtha are fractions separated from crude oil using fractional distillation.Here's more in simple,the basic principle of fractional distillation is of using the different boiling points of elements(parts) in a compound(a mixture). A fractional distillation process is done in a cylinder which has different compartments having different temperature points. When the mixture is kept in the cylinder, the elements which have the same boiling point as in the compartment it is in, it vaporizes and moves out through a pipe. The mixture goes on vaporizing as the temperature increases and at last all the elements are removed in separated drums where they are condensed and brought back to their normal state.Another way of putting it is:Fractional distillation differs from distillation only in that it separates a mixture into a number of different parts, called fractions. A tall column is fitted above the mixture, with several condensers coming off at different heights. The column is hot at the bottom and cool at the top. Substances with high boiling points condense at the bottom and substances with low boiling points condense at the top. Like distillation, fractional distillation works because the different substances in the mixture have different boiling points.The simplest way is:Fractional distillation is a form of distillation which is used when more than two liquids with different boiling points are to be separated.
What two oceans separate the us from much of the world?
The main oceans are the Atlantic Ocean, and the Pacific Ocean.
Is naphtha and kerosene the same?
Kerosene is a derivative of the petroleum distillation, between 150 0C and 250 0C. Naphtha is also a derivative of the petroleum distillation, between 50 0C and 200 0C. But the chemical composition of naphtha and kerosene are not totally identical.
What us distillation?
water from salt, whisky,vodka and crude oil! :)
What property of the isopropanol is different from the water which allows us to separate them?
Different boiling points ... fractional distillation will separate them, BUT it forms a constant boiling mixture at 87.7% (w/w.) If you want it any purer than that, you will have to introduce a 3rd component to break the azeotrope.
