Fresh Water From the Oceans?

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

High schoolers participate in an activity in which they demonstrate how the evaporations of water from the oceans results in fresh water in the form of rain. They create a saltwater solution in a flask and boil the water until most of the solution has evaporated and in a beaker. They taste the water in the beaker and compare it to the starting solution as well as observe the bottom of the flask once it has cooled.
