Question

Janice is given a mixture of alcohol and water the teacher tells her that she can use temperature to separate these compounds what property is being demonstrated by this experiment

Answer 1

Boiling point difference between the constituent liquids.

Explanation:

The boiling point is a physical property of matter especially liquids. It is exploited in distillation processes to separate liquids having different temperatures at which they boil.

• Simple distillation is used to separate a liquid - liquid mixture in which the components have an appreciable boiling point differences.
• The method is used for purification of liquids.
• Most alcohol boils at 78°C whereas water boils at 100°C
• In a distillation flask, the alcohol will rise first and collected over the Liebig condenser.
• The water will remain in the flask and collected.
