Flashcards in C2.1.5 - Distillation Deck (10)
Loading flashcards...
1
What does simple distillation do?
Separate a solvent from a solution
2
What does simple distillation rely on?
The solvent having a lower boiling point than the solute
3
What is simple distillation good for?
Purifying a solvent
4
How does simple distillation work?
The solution is heated until the solvent evaporates. The solvent then goes to the condenser and condenser into a new container and becomes pure
5
Name all the equipment used in simple distillation
Thermometer
Condenser
Flask
Heat Source (Bunsen Burner)
6
How is the condenser kept cool?
By a constant cold water flow
7
What does fractional distillation do?
It separates 2 or more liquids
8
What does fractional distillation rely on?
All the substances having different boiling points
9
How does fractional distillation work?
Both liquid substances evaporate into the fractionating column. When they condense, the temperature increases, until 1 of the substances fully evaporate while the other drops back, in purity
