Water Purification


Aim

The aim of this practical is to analyse a sample of water and then to purify the water through a process of purification. 

Background information

Water purification is the process of removing impurities from water to make it suitable for drinking. In this practical, you will measure the pH of a water sample, remove impurities by distillation, and check the purity of the water by measuring the boiling point.

How is the boiling point of the distilled water determined?

by analysing the mass balance

by heating the water until it boils and measuring the temperature

by measuring the pH of the water sample

by weighing the cooled evaporating basin
