You are on an island and need freshwater to drink. Which process could you
use to separate the salt from ocean water and provide freshwater for
drinking?
O A. Distillation
B. Chromatography
C. Filtering
O D. Freezing
The reason it is distillation is due to the fact that we can use distillation to heat the ocean water. As water has a lower boiling point than the salt solution, it evaporates and the salt stays behind.
