To separate this type of mixture whose difference in boiling point is about 25 K, the process of fractional distillation is used. Take a solution of acetone and water in a distillation flask.

The boiling point of water is hundred degree Celsius and that of acetone is 56 degree Celsius.
Therefore simple distillation will separate Acetone from the solution.
Acetone having lower boiling point will distil off First leaving water behind.
