Question

5 examples of distillation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

EXAMPLES OF DISTILLATION:

1. The simplest and most common example of distillation is the steam from a kettle, which gets deposited as drops of distilled water on a cold surface.

2. This process is used in the separation of alcoholic liquors from fermented materials for purification of alcohol by separating liquids from non-volatile solids.

3. It is used to separate two or more liquids having different boiling points, as in the case of separation of gasoline, kerosene, and lubricating oil from crude oil in crude oil refining, enabling safe storage and transportation.

4. Making liquefied gases from the air. For example, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon are distilled from the air.

5. The desalination of seawater is done through distillation.

6. Perfumes and flavorings for food are obtained from herbs and plants by distillation.

7. Distilled water is used in lead-acid batteries and low-volume humidifiers.

8. Other industrial uses include the processing of chemical products such as formaldehyde and phenol.

Answer 2

Explanation

DISTILLATION -

• The process of separation of components from a homogenous liquid mixture.
• The substances are miscible with different boiling points.
• The process involves vapourization followed by condensation of the vapors.
• The process is widely used on the commercial scale, such as -

1. Desalination - Separation of salt from seawater.

2. Liquefaction of gases from the air such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon, carbon dioxide.

3. Extraction of flavours and perfumes from plants.

4. Processing and extraction of petroleum products from crude oil.

5. Chemical products such as phenol are processed in industries by distillation.
