A steam volatile organic compound which is immiscible with water has a boiling point of 250^ C . During steam distillation, a mixture of this organic compound and water will boil :

Options

  1. Aabove 100^ C but below 250^ C
  2. Babove 250^ C
  3. Cat 250^ C
  4. Dclose to but below 100^ C

Correct answer

D. close to but below 100^ C

Step-by-step solution

If one of the substances in the mixture is water and the other, a water insoluble substance, then the mixture will boil close to but below, 373 ~K (100^ C ) .
