As batch distillation of two volatile liquids proceeds, the boiling point of the remaining liquid
Agradually rises
Bgradually falls
Cfalls, then rises
Dstays the same
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. gradually rises
The liquid loses its more volatile component and grows richer in the less volatile one, so its boiling point climbs.
