Question

Explain fractional distillation in hydrocarbons

Answer 1

$<b><u>$ Answer :-

During fractional distillation, hydrocarbons are separated according to their specific boiling point. Substances with higher boiling points will condense first at the bottom (warmer-portion) of the fractionating column. Substances with lower boiling points must travel further up the column (cooler-portion) to condense. Horizontal trays are present throughout the column to capture the gas that has condensed at that particular position in the column.

Answer 2

Fractional distillation is the process by which oil refineries separate crude oil into different, more useful hydrocarbon products based on their relative molecular weights in a distillation tower.
