I think it is an excellent idea. However since it has not been
determined whether the contamination is of lower or higher boiling
point than water, the last should not be distilled either, the
contamination may be coming over in the last 10% instead of the first
10%.
Ah, I've been running experiments, and in a second distilling pass the
first half came out .5 uS and the second half .8 uS.
What does this tell me about the boiling point of "x" ? Would that
mean it is higher or lower than the boiling point of water?
thanks,
It would be indicative of a lower vapor pressure, which equates with a
higher boiling point. Another possibility is splatter or entrainment,
where particles of salt are getting transported to the condenser by
splatter or steam movement (like dust in a wind). As the water boils
down, the salt content goes up, thus increasing the transfer of the
particles.
