Question

Accepted Answer

Distillation is a process used to separate components of a liquid mixture based on differences in boiling points.

Types of distillation include simple distillation, fractional distillation, and steam distillation.
Simple distillation is used to separate components with significantly different boiling points.
Fractional distillation is used for mixtures with closer boiling points, utilizing a fractionating column to achieve better separation.
Steam distillation is commonly used for extracting essential oils from plants by passing steam through the plant material and then condensing the steam to collect the oil.
Distillation is a key process in industries such as chemical, pharmaceutical, and beverage production.
