Q. Assertion (A) 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 higher $373\, K$.
Reason (R) Aniline is separated by using separating funnel technique from aniline-water mixture.

Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques

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 lower than $373 \,K$. Thus, $R$ is correct but $A$ is incorrect.
