what is fractional distillation
Answers
Answer
separation of a liquid mixture into fractions differing in boiling point (and hence chemical composition) by means of distillation, typically using a fractionating column is known as fractional distillation
Answer:
Explanation:
Fractional distillation is the process of separating two miscible liqiuds that have a very less difference in the boiling points. This means that the difference in boiling point is less than 25degrees.
They have the same structure as simple distillation. However, they have a fractionating column than contain beads in them. This is done to continuously heat and cool the volatile liquid. The more volatile liquid rises first. The continuous heating and cooling seperates the more volatile from the less volatile.
After that, it travels through the Leibig's condenser and is obtained.
