Fractional distillation is the best method for the separation of Acetone and carbon tetrachloride mixture.
- This technique is used for the separation of miscible liquids which differ slightly in their boiling points.
- Acetone and carbon tetrachloride are miscible.
- The boiling point of acetone is 56°C and that of carbon tetrachloride is 76°C
- Simple distillation works only if the difference in boiling point is above 100°C.
- Repeated vaporization and condensation happen in the fractionating column and the most volatile substance that is acetone condenses first and leaves the column.
