SIMPLE DISTILLATION SET UP

The equipment consists of Borosilicate glass round bottom flask as distillation still . The distillation is carried out by heating the still. The vapors coming from the column is going in to the condenser. The distillate is collected in round bottom flask

RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT :

1. To study the simple distillation
2. To verify Rayleigh Equation for simple distillation
