➲ To separate the components of miscible liquids by Fractional Distillation.
⚫ Set up the apparatus.
⚫ Take the benzene and toluene liquids in the distillation flask.
⚫ Heat the mixture slowly.
⚫ Collect the first fraction in the receiver.
⚫ Collect the second fraction also into another receiver.
⚫ Keep close watch at the thermometer while distillation flask is being heated.
⚫ Which of the two liquids distillates first.
Answer:
Principle :-
Crude oil, still one of the most important raw materials in the world, is a mixture of many hydrocarbons. Because the crude oil is a mixture of substances with different boiling temperatures, individual substances with different boiling ranges can be separated by distillation in fractions. In this experiment a model of crude oil is distilled.
What you can learn about
- Distillative separation of a liquid mixture
- How a fractional distillation works
- Destillation of cruide oil
Composition of cruide oil (this experiment examines a model of crude oil)
Benefits :-
The glass equipment makes it easy for observers to recognise and understand the experiment set-up.
