Distillation is a separation technique used to separate components of a liquid mixture by selective boiling and condensation. If the two liquids in the homogeneous mixture have different boiling points, one liquid will vaporize more readily than the other when heated. The vapor is then condensed back into a liquid and collected, achieving separation.
A homogeneous mixture contains two liquids. How are they separated?
