what do you mean by fractional distillation? what are the principles on which it is based?
Answers
Explanation:
Fractional distillation is the separation of a mixture into its component parts, or fractions. Chemical compounds are separated by heating them to a temperature at which one or more fractions of the mixture will vaporize..
The principle of fractional distillation is that different liquids boil at different temperature. The miscible liquids boil at different temperature and evaporate at different temperature. When the mixture is heated, the liquid with lower boiling point boils and turns into vapou
