distillation apparatus

A distillation apparatus is a setup used to separate liquids based on their boiling points. It typically includes a heated container where the liquid mixture is boiled, causing the more volatile component to vaporize first. The vapors rise into a condenser, which cools them back into liquid form. This purified liquid, called distilled liquid, is collected in a separate container. The process allows for the separation and purification of liquids, making it useful in industries like chemistry, refining, and producing spirits. The apparatus's key parts are the boiler, condenser, and collection flask, working together to efficiently separate components.
