describe reflux
heat something intensely
what 5 pieces of equipment are required for a reflux reaction
round bottom flask condensor rubber tubing stand and clamp heat source
describe distillation
heat a solution gently and then collect the condensed product to separate and purify a product
what pieces of equipment does a distillation reaction require that a reflux reaction does not
thermometer
beaker
what key piece of equipment is needed to purify solutions
separating funnels
