Separation of Acetone and Benzene from their mixture is carried out by
- A Fractional distillation
- B Simple distillation
- C Fractional distillation using fractionating column
- D Distillation under reduced pressure
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Fractional distillation using fractionating column
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Acetone cannot be easily separated from benzene in high purity by distillation because of the closeness of their vapor pressures.
Acetone can be readily removed from benzene by azeotropic distillation which is basically fractional distillation under fractionating column using certain aromatic hydrocarbons.
