Question

what is the process of fractional distillation​

Answer 1

Answer:

Fractional distillation is a process by which individual components can be separated using heat from a given mixture. The boiling points of each component in the mixture determine the order of separation. Common uses of fractional distillation include the production of distilled water, and gasoline from crude oil.

Answer 2

Answer:

• In a fractional distillation, a mixture of liquids is boiled and the resulting vapors travel up a glass tube called a “fractionating column” and separate. The fractionating column is placed between the flask containing the mixture and the “Y” adaptor and improves the separation between the liquids being distilled.
