The necessary conditions for distillations of a mixture of liquid are
1) A well-performed distillation requires the use of a modern distillation system, and a thermometer is a must!
2)The liquid must be miscible
3)High temperature tolerant compounds are preferable, for example a solution of common table salt (NaCl) in water, since table salt is very stable at high temperatures.
4) In addition, it is recommended to constantly stir the mixture during the distillation process, in order to allow for adequate dispersion of the heat (and prevent any material at the bottom of the flask from overheating and breaking down, much like the rice at the bottom of the pot).
