The graph of temperature-component mole fraction for Benzene-Ethanol binary system is given in the picture. If you want to purify this binary mixture, which is known to have a 0.8 mole fraction, by simple (ordinary) distillation, what would the mole fraction of benzene in the distillate be approximately (but a reasonable value)?

An aldehyde has a boiling point] that is intermediate between an alkane (of the same mass) and an alcohol (also of the same mass). Why is this? Group of answer choices The aldehyde's mass is intermediate between the alcohol and the alkane. The aldehyde molecules interact with each other through dipole/dipole interactions, which are stronger than the interactions between alkane molecules and weaker than the interactions between alcohol molecules. there is no known explanation for the intermediate boiling points of aldehydes. None of the above.

The Dumas method was used to determine the molar mass of an unknown volatile liquid. Atmospheric pressure was 1.000 atm. Volume of flask was measured as 248 mL. Water bath was maintained at boiling temperature until liquid completely evaporated. Then the flask was cooled down. Mass of condensed vapor was determined as 0.4704 g. The liquid is likely to be: (A) Acetone, (CH3)2CO (B) Isopropanol C3H7OH (C) Diethyl ether (C2H5)2O (D) Isooactane C8H18
