Answer: Distillation can be used to separate and collect a liquid from a solution. Distillation can also be used to soften water as the water evaporates as it is heated and the ions are left behind. Hard water can be softened by adding sodium carbonate (washing soda) or by passing the water through an ion-exchange column.
The best answer between the two choices would be the first option TRUE because the scientific method is used to do more advance research and investigation on things.
The lack of a number preceding the carbon symbol C and the compound formula CO2 shows that there is one carbon atom and one carbon dioxide molecule. Subscript numbers in chemical formulas represent the number of atoms or molecules immediately preceding the subscript.
