can we separate alcohol dissolved in water by using separating funnel. if yes then discribe
Answers
Answer:
no we cannot separate water and alchohol by separating funnel
Explanation:
Good morning mates
density of alchohol is somewhat equivalent to that of water i think they can be separated by fractional distillation.
here is how u do it
- Different liquids can be obtained from different parts of the column, or by continuing to heat the mixture to increase the temperatures in the column.
- Distillation process to separate ethanol from water. ...
- The ethanol evaporates first, cools, then condenses.
- The water left evaporates, cools, then condenses
.Hope it helps you mate
Explanation:-
No, we can't sperate alcohol dissolved in water by using separating funnel.
Separating funnel is a device or a funnel like structure which is used to separate the mixture of liquids having different densities.
Separating funnel work on the principal that the liquid having higher densities are in bottom.
And can be easily sperated by using a stopcock.
Ex :- Mixture of oil and water.
Oil has low density than water.
- It is used to sperate the mixture of two liquids which is Immicble in each other.
- The mixture should have different densities.
- Only homogeneous solution can be sperated.
Alcohol is highly miscible liquid because the water and alcohol has same functional group and cannot be easily sperated by using separating funnel.
- They have different melting and boiling point.
- And the mixtures of alcohol and water is separated by using fractional distillation process.
