Potable water is obtained from seawater by the process of distillation.

• The incorrect words in the above-given statement are the spelling of 'potable' and the name of the process by which it is obtained.
• Evaporation is the process of transformation of liquid into gas. Seawater gets evaporated because of sunlight. We obtain salt through this process.
• Distillation is the process of transformation of liquid into a gas and then from gas to liquid. In simple words, it can be said that it is a combination of evaporation and condensation.
• Potable water is obtained by heating seawater and by converting the water vapours into liquid again.
