Question
Chapter 5, Problem 9Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason for the better separation of two liquids by slow rather than fast distillation should be determined.
Concept introduction:
The process to separate the component from liquid mixture by boiling of selective liquid followed by condensation of the mixture is called distillation. The distillation depends upon the boiling point difference of the components. The distillation is used in various industries to get the pure component.
