Interpretation:
The effect of the decrease in atmospheric pressure on the boiling point should be determined. Also, whether cyclohexane and toluene can be separated if the external pressure is
Concept introduction:
A technique used to separate various components or a fraction from a mixture based on their volatilities is called fractional distillation. The fractional distillation is used to separate different components of the mixture if boiling point difference is less than
The boiling point of the substance is that temperature value at which vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the value of atmospheric pressure and the liquid changes into a vapor. It is a colligative property because it depends on a number of moles of solute particles that are present in the substance.

- Which hydrocarbon (heptane, 1-octadecene) is expected to be more soluble in isopropanol? Why?arrow_forwardExplain the concept of conformation a polymer and provide two examples.arrow_forwardThe molar heat of combustion of gaseous cyclopropane is -2089 Kj/mol, that for gaseous cyclopentene is -3317 Kj/mol. Calculate the heat of combustion per CH2 group in the two cases and account for the differencearrow_forward
- Two samples of C60 are stirred in H2O and benzene respectively. How would you determine the size of the fullerene?arrow_forwardThe heats of combustion of methane and butane are 890 kJ/mol (212.8 kcal/mol) and 2876 kJ/mol (687.4 kcal/mol), respectively. When used as a fuel, would methane or butane generate more heat for the same mass of gas? Which would generate more heat for the same volume of gas?arrow_forward
