🔍 Key Concepts

• Phase changes of water (liquid ↔ vapor) • Basic steps in distillation: heating (boiling) and then cooling (changing phase back) • Difference between evaporation, condensation, and distillation

💭 Think About

• When sea water is heated, what change of state happens to the water? What is that called? • When the vapor is cooled back into fresh liquid water, what is that specific change of state called? • Which choice is the overall process name, and which choice is the name of the specific cooling phase?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term refers to the overall process (heating + cooling) of making fresh water from sea water. • Identify which term refers specifically to the cooling and turning vapor back into liquid step. • Eliminate any terms that describe removing water rather than forming liquid fresh water.
