4) Ask your instructor to inspect your equipment set up. Turn on the heating mantle. When the mixture boils, adjust the heat to maintain a distillation rate of approximately 1 drop per second.
5) Stop the distillation when approximately 30‐40 mL of distillate has been collected.
6) Allow the distillate to cool to room temperature. Carefully pour the distillate into a
separatory funnel. Add 10 mL of saturated NaCl solution.
