this is the first time i answered pls give me 5 stars... ty

Answer 2

The correct answer is option a.

Fractional distillation is used to separate the liquids which have a difference in their boiling points.

The boiling point of of benzene is 80℃ & that of chloroform is 61.2 ℃.

So,benzene can be separated out from chloroform by fractional distillation.
