how will you separate mixture containing kerosene and petrol which are miscible with each other?
Answers
Explanation:
Simple distillation can be used when the temperature difference between the boiling points of two miscible liquid is at least 25oC. The temperature difference between the boiling points of kerosene and petrol is 25oC. Hence, this mixture can be separated using simple distillation.
Answer:
A mixture of two miscible liquids having a difference in their boiling points more than 25 °C can be separated by the method of simple distillation.
The boiling point of kerosene = around 150–180 °C
The boiling point of petrol = 95 °C
Procedure:
Please refer the attachment
In this method, the mixture of kerosene and petrol is taken in a distillation flask with a thermometer fitted in it also consider a beaker, water condenser, and a Bunsen burner. The mixture is heated slowly, since the boiling point of petrol is less compare to kerosene, it will first undergo vaporization and condense in the water condenser. The condensed petrol is collected from the condenser outlet, whereas kerosene is left behind in the distillation flask.
