How to distill water

          Water is the most important important resource for human survival. But, not all water is safe for drinking so to decontaminate it a process called water distillation is used . The steps for this are as follows.

           First, the contaminated water should be collected in a beaker. Next, you should set up the equipment so that the bunsen burner is below the beaker and the distillation tubes are situated above the beaker. After that, make sure that the other end of the distillation tubes are connected to a collection beaker. Next, fill the bunsen burner with oil and make sure all safety precautions have been taken. Then, light the bunsen burner and watch as bubbles start to form in the liquid. Finally, examine the water, it should eventually heat up to the boiling point. When the process is over the distilled water will be collected in the collection beaker.

          While following all related safety procedures it is very easy to achieve distilled water by following these simple steps. Enjoy your clean distilled water and make some more when ever you want.

The most important day


          In general people have days in their lives which have a great impact on their day to day living. These important days can range from the day they take their first steps in life or simply becoming a doctor. However, the most important day that I can remember is my graduation day from school.

          The series of events that led me to that important day started in grade nine when we were given a choice of a career path. I began to understand the true value of education and became very hard working and ambitious. From that year until my final year in school I took school very seriously and my efforts paid off.

          Finally, the day of my graduation ceremony came and I was feeling very anxious and nervous as we all sat waiting for our names to be called out. My name was announced at last and it was the beginning of a new level of education for sure with a grade point average of 96.3 with distinction! I felt I had accomplished something amazing.

          In conclusion, choices and actions made in life have an impact on your future so, therefore, choices should be made wisely. Most if not all days at school were just as important to me as the final day.
