How Saltwater is Distilled into Fresh Water - Lab Setup Explained #98691 (License: Personal Use)

This educational diagram illustrates a classic laboratory distillation process where saltwater is heated in a round-bottom flask, producing steam that travels through a condenser cooled by circulating cold water. The vapor condenses back into liquid fresh water, collected in a separate receiver flask, while salt and impurities remain behind. Key components-including the thermometer, condenser, and heat source-are clearly labeled to support learning.

Used in educational science content (e.g., chemistry or environmental science lessons),科普 articles, and sustainability guides explaining desalination principles; matches user intent for understanding basic water purification methods.
