Distillation

The video tutorial explains the process of distillation, a method used to separate components of a liquid mixture by heating it in a closed vessel until it boils, collecting the vapor, and allowing it to condense. This process allows for the collection of liquid fractions with successively higher boiling points. Distillation is widely used in industries such as oil refining and the production of spirits.
