Question
Chapter 4.4, Problem 6E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Alignment of column of fractional distillation apparatus in vertical position should be explained.
Concept introduction: Fractional distillation is separation technique that separates various fractions of components in mixture. This process is based on vaporization of one or more fractions or parts of mixture. It is used to separate components of mixture that have difference in boiling points less than

What is the problem with using a solvent with a very high boiling point for recrystallization?
What is another factor that can influence fractional distillation’s success other than the number of theoretical plates?
True or False. It is very important to regulate the temperature of the heating mantle so that the distillation occurs at a rate of about 1 drop per 2 seconds.
