Actually, Fred, you learn all sorts of things in chemistry--including 
chemistry lab--about distillation.  And about how to make distillation 
work  I even knew a guy in high school (the son of a local judge) who 
was able to build an electrically-powered still in his closet... and he 
learned it all... in chemistry class.  :)
