Question
Researchers purify two samples of the same mixture, one by simple distillation and the other by vacuum distillation. Which of the following expressions correctly compares the relationship between the mixture components' boiling points (bp) during each distillation?A.Simple distillation bp = vacuum distillation bpB.Simple distillation bp < vacuum distillation bpC.Simple distillation bp > vacuum distillation bpD.Simple distillation bp = 2(vacuum distillation bp)Submit
Solution
The correct answer is C. Simple distillation bp > vacuum distillation bp.
This is because vacuum distillation is a method used to distill compounds which are heat sensitive. The reduction in pressure reduces the boiling point of the components in the mixture, allowing them to be separated at lower temperatures. Therefore, the boiling point during vacuum distillation is lower than during simple distillation.
