Fractional distillation

Explanation:

The best way to separate the mixtures out is through the process of fractional distillation.

In fractional distillation, liquid - liquid mixtures are separated based on the differences in boiling point of their components. Let us examine the boiling points of the component of the mixtures:  

     Ethanol                  78⁰C

     Glycerol                290⁰C

     Ethylene glycol     197.6⁰C

     Methanol               64.7⁰C

     Water                     100⁰C

We see that the liquids in the mixture have different boiling points. In this process, the mixture is heated in a distillation column. When the boiling point of any component is reached, it will rise up in the column and can be channeled to a condenser where it is cooled and collected.

The liquid with the least boiling point is first separated with the one with the highest boiling is recovered last:

   Order of recovery;

               Methanol               64.7⁰C

               Ethanol                  78⁰C

                Water                    100⁰C

               Ethylene glycol     197.6⁰C

                Glycerol                290⁰C

What is a maximum negative displacement of a wave
AnnZ [28]

The maximum negative displacement of a wave is the same as its amplitude.

As a wave travels through space, its particles are sometimes above the

<em>x</em>-axis (+) and sometimes below it (-).

The maximum displacement from the axis is the <em>amplitude</em> of the wave.

The amplitude of the wave is the <em>same in both the positive and negative directions</em>.
