(a)
To determine: The pairs of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation.
Interpretation: The pair of compounds that could be separated by recrystallization or distillation is to be stated.
Concept introduction: If two compounds have same molecular formula, but the spatial arrangement of atoms is different, then they are known as stereoisomers. Stereoisomers are further divided into two categories: optical isomers and geometrical isomers. The two different forms in which a single chiral carbon can exist is referred as enantiomers. The class of diastereomers includes stereoisomers that are not enantiomers. They are not the mirror images of each other. There are two or more chiral centers generally present in diastereoisomers.

- The mixture contains benzoic acid, 2-napthol, and naphthalene. Dissolve the mixture in the polar solvent ether. When you react the mixture with 10% NaHCO3(sodium bicarbonatea weak base in aqueous solution) reacts with benzoic acid and forms sodium benzoate an ionic compound (similar to NaCl) that dissolves in aqueous solution (heavier than ether in density) and goes to the bottom of the centrifuge tube or to the bottom of the separatory funnel forming two layers. Then remove the bottom aqueous layer and collect in a beaker labeled as bicarbonate extract. Acidify the bicarbonate extract in the beaker to give benzoic acid. The top ethereal layer contains in the centrifuge tube or separatory funnel 2-napthol and naphthalene.
