The following statements are all about distillation. Which ones are correct?

The following statements are all about distillation. Which ones are correct? Liquid substances have to be purified by distillation because column chromatography would not work for a liquid sample. To distill a small amount of a liquid, a Hickman head is often useful. Either boiling chips or stirring have to be used to prevent bumping. Distillation is a common purification method for volatile liquids. Cooling water has to flow through the condenser from the top to the bottom. The thermometer must be submerged in the liquid distilling mixture to obtain accurate boiling points.
