What is distillation, and how we can do by this method and its material?


Distillation is the process of separating components of a mixture based on different boiling points. 

Examples of uses of distillation include purification of alcohol, desalination, crude oil refining, and making liquefied gases from the air.


In order to separate a mixture of oil and water-Distillation is a process by which water is removed as vapours by boiling, and then the vapours are condensed to give back the water. This will help to separate oil and water because the boiling point of water is very less than oil. Thus it can boil off faster than oil from the mixture of water and oil.
