How does the process of distillation go?

• When a liquid is being heated to boiling point to vaporize it, then condensed back into a liquid so that it is separated from impurities or other solutes.

• Using filter paper to catch the residue, giving us a clean filtrate.

• It holds the liquid to catch the heavy or light residue.

• The process involves how the heavy components are being transported by water, wind, ice, or gravity.
