How to prepare distilled water1Definition and use of distilled waterDistilled water refers to the process of distilling tap water or other water sources to remove impurities and dissolved substances in them to obtain pure water.
Distilled water is widely used in laboratories, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, electronics and other industries, as well as in drinking water and cooking in daily life.
2.Preparation of Distillation Equipment and Equipment The key to preparing distilled water is to choose the right distillation equipment and equipment.
Common distillation equipment is glass stills and stainless steel stills.
You will also need to prepare a heating device such as an electric kettle and heating plate.
3.It is important to prepare the water source and choose a water source that is suitable for distillation.
In general, tap water is one of the commonly used water sources, but tap water contains various chemicals and microorganisms that need to be distilled to remove them.
4.Assembling the stills assembles the individual parts of the still according to the instructions.
Ensure the tightness and stability of the still.
5.Heat the still and pour the water into the flask of the still, then close the flask and connect the condenser.
Place the still on the heating device, turn on the heating device and start heating.
6.Collecting Distilled WaterAs the heating progresses, the water source is heated and evaporated, and the steam is cooled by the condenser and becomes a liquid and falls into the collection bottle.
This gives distilled water.
7.To check the purity of distilled water, distilled water can be tested using relevant purity testing equipment to ensure that its purity meets the requirements.
8.PrecautionsWhen preparing distilled water, you need to pay attention to the following:
High-quality water is used to ensure distillation effectiveness and purity.
Clean the retort and related equipment to avoid contamination of the distilled water.
During the heating process, pay attention to the stability and safety of the heater.
9.SummaryThe process of preparing distilled water requires suitable distillation equipment and water sources, and it should be strictly operated to ensure the purity and quality of distilled water.
Distilled water has a wide range of applications in the laboratory and in daily life, and is especially important for some occasions with high water quality requirements.
