Answer 1

$\huge{HEY!!}$

__________________________________

⭕First of all we take a mixture of acetone and water in a distillation flask.

⭕Arrange the apparatus as shown in the figure.

⭕After that we heat the flask slowly tell the liquid starts boiling and the temperature of the liquid starts rising.

⭕The acetone vaporizers and condensers in the condenser and we can collect it from the condenser outlet.

⭕Temperature will remain constant tell all the Acetone and mixture is evaporated.

⭕When the temperature starts rising, stop heating the flask. You will observe that in the distillation flask only pure water is left.

⭕This method is called distillation. It is used for separation of components of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil without decomposition and their boiling point.

Answer 2

Distillation:-

This method is used for separation of components of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil without decomposition and have sufficient difference in their boiling point.

Example:- mixture of acetone and water are separated through this method.
