Sometimes fractional distillation method is used instead of distillation to seperate two miscible liquids why? What is the difference in the apparatus used for distillation and fractional distillation.

Well let me help u with this..
Distillation is used to separate a solid-liquid mixture like salt and water in which salt is a soluble solid while Fractional distillation is used to separate a mixture of two miscible liquids with close boiling points like if one liquid boils at 59degrees, the other boils at 65degrees so Fractional distillation also has a Fractionating column for this kind of separation
Hope it may help you;-)....
