Question

A mixture of acetone (b.p. 56°) and methanol (b.p. 65°) can be separated by (A) Vacuum distillation (B) Steam distillation (C) Fractional distillation (D) Distillation under reduced pressure.

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Since their boiling points differ by less than 10°C, they can be separated by fractional distillation.

Q. A mixture of acetone (b.p. 56 $^{\circ}$ ) and methanol (b.p. 65 $^{\circ}$ ) can be separated by

Vacuum distillation

Steam distillation

Fractional distillation

Distillation under reduced pressure.

Since their boiling points differ by less than 10 $^{\circ}$ C, they can be separated by fractional distillation.
