Answer:

The fundamental principle involves the formation of equilibrium and separation into distillate and bottoms governed by the equilibrium composition curve , number of stages and the purity with which the distillate is required.

Explanation:

Distillation is a type of the separation process by physical means of a mixture on basis of its difference in boiling point or vapor pressure .  

Where we can just heat the mixture and separate out the components i.e the component with lower boiling point will form vapor easily and can be later condensed whereas the component with higher boiling point will remain as residue.

In case of a distillation column the same principle is applied at different stages to separate multiple components .The stages are known as trays or plates . In general , there is a certain liquid on each of the plate, and the arrangements are made for the ascending vapors to pass through the liquid and make contact with it . The fundamental principle involves the formation of equilibrium and separation into distillate and bottoms governed by the equilibrium composition curve , number of stages and the purity with which the distillate is required.

How many electrons would an uncharged atom of nitrogen have
dybincka [34]
The atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. In an uncharged atom, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. For example, carbon atoms include six protons and six electrons, so carbon's atomic number is 6.

What is moment and its calculations ​
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Moment=Force x Pivot

Explanation:

A moment is the turning effect of a force. Moments act about a point in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction.

Law of moments:

When an object is balanced (in equilibrium) the sum of the clockwise moments is equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moments.

How to calculate moments:

Moment=Force x Pivot
