NEETChemistryGeneral Organic Chemistry
Two liquids (A) and (B) can be separated by the method of fractional distillation. The boiling point of liquid (A) is less than boiling point of liquid (B). Which of the liquids do you expect to come out first in the distillate? Explain.
Options
- ALiquid [A] will come out first because it has a higher boiling point.
- BLiquid [B] will come out first because it has a lower boiling point.
- CLiquid [A] will come out first because it has a lower boiling point.
- DLiquid [B] will come out first because it has a higher boiling point.
Correct answer
C. Liquid [A] will come out first because it has a lower boiling point.
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Liquid [A] will come out first because it has a lower boiling point.
