Sea water can be purified by the process of – (1) distillation (2) evaporation (3) filtration (4) fractional distillation

1 Answer

Answer :

(1) distillation Explanation: The traditional process used in desalination operations is vacuum distillation— essentially the boiling of water at less than atmospheric pressure and thus a much lower temperature than normal. This is because the boiling of a liquid occurs when the vapor pressure equals the ambient pressure and vapor pressure increases with temperature.
