Separation by evaporation

The video explains that while water molecules in spring and tap water are identical, spring water contains more minerals like calcium and magnesium. These minerals dissolve as water flows over rocks, forming a solution. Soluble substances like minerals can be separated from water through evaporation. Heating water to 100°C causes it to evaporate, leaving minerals behind. This process explains why spring water has a distinct flavor due to its mineral content.
