Question

The process which is employed to separate the mixture of two miscible liquids differing in their boiling points is:
  1. decantation
  2. evaporation
  3. fractional distillation
  4. distillation

A
distillation
B
decantation
C
fractional distillation
D
evaporation
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Fractional distillation is the separation of a mixture into its parts, or fractions, separating chemical compounds by their boiling point by heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the compound will vaporize.
For example. alcohol and water are miscible liquids but both are having different boiling points i.e. 78°C & 100°C respectively. So for their separation, fractional distillation has to be carried out.
