The water and the spirit can be easily separated by a method called fractional distillation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • There are many ways of separating alcohol from water. The most common method is by heating. Water has a higher boiling point when compared to alcohol and the water can be easily evaporated into the air.
  • This method is called Fractional distillation. As it requires a rounded flash, a beaker, and a container. If the content is put under the heat for a certain degree celsius the water in the content is evaporated.
  • It is to be collected and connected to a container. At last, the alcohol and water are separated.

Third structure is CH₄. It is an alkane with one carbon atom hence it is called methane.

Fourth structure is CH₃-CH₂-CH₃. It is an alkane with three carbon atoms hence it is called propane.

Some of the salt would settle out. When the water was heated, it was able to absorb more salt than usual. This is known as super saturation. When the water is frozen it cannot hold as much salt, so some of it has to come out.

Volgvan
21.4 g Al * (1 mol / 26.98 g ) * (2 mol Fe / 2 mol Al) = 0.793 mol Fe 
91.3 g Fe2O3 * (1 mol / 159.69 g) * (2 mol Fe / 1 mol Fe2O3) = 1.14 mol Fe 
0.793 mol Fe * (55.85 g / 1 mol) = 44.3 g Fe produced.
