So, you mean by only boiling you can avoid chemicals. Interesting. You need to pick up your science books again, 😉

We all do. Some chemicals have high vapor pressure and can be boiled off faster than the water!

I see. Now you see and read it.
Boiling water can only remove solids and bacteria, meaning it will not remove harmful substances such as chlorine and lead from tap water. https://mytapscore.com/blogs/tips-for-taps/should-i-boil-my-tap-water

This is wrong. Chlorine evaporates when you boil water. It even evaporates when you just let water sit, but takes longer.
