Steps of distillation methods

1.	Steps of distillation methods
Answer» his method is used to separate the mixture of two miscible liquids where difference between their boiling points is at least 25 ºC.Acetone and water are miscible liquids also the difference between their boiling point is more than 25 ºC so they can be separated by the method of simple distillation.Follow the steps given below(i) Take a mixture in the distillation flask fit it with the thermometer.(ii) Arrange the apparatus as shown in the given figure.(iii) Heat the mixture slowly keeping a close watch on thermometer.(iv) Since the acetone has lower boiling point starts vaporises and condenses in the condenser which is finally collected in the beaker.
