Solution

<!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--> Simple distillation is the process of separating components of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil without decomposition and have sufficient differences in their boiling points.
Principle of Distillation
This method is used to separate a mixture of solid into a liquid.
1. It is heating the liquid to form a vapour and then cooling it to get back the liquid.
2. It is used to separate components of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil
without decomposition and have sufficient differences in their boiling points.
3. The volatile liquid evaporates on heating which can be recovered by cooling its vapours by condensation.
