Question

While deleting a solution of salt in water a student by mistake added acetone boiling point 56 0 Celsius What technique can be employed to get back the acetone justify your answer.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Acetone can be get back by simple distillation because the difference in the boiling points of acetone and water is more than 25°C. In distillation flask, acetone will boil at 56°C and change into vapours and can be collected in flask after condensation.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Acetone is soluble in water, a homogeneous mixture is obtained and hence separation by separating funnel cannot be used. Acetone can be get back by simple distillation because the difference in the boiling points of acetone and water is more than 25°C.

Boiling point of acetone - 56°C

Boiling point of water -100°C

In distillation flask, acetone will boil at 56°C and change into vapours and can be collected in flask after condensation.
