As per your syllabus, distillation effectively separates two liquids if their boiling points differ by at least approximately how much?
- Less than 5 °C
- Less than 1 °C
- At least about 25 °C
- Exactly 100 °C
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: C. At least about 25 °C
As per your syllabus, distillation needs at least ~25 °C difference
fractional distillation handles smaller differences.
The other options misstate.
