Distillation Of Hexane Lab Report

In experiment 5, distillation method was used to divide hexane and toluene from a mixture (50:50) of hexane and toluene. Hexane was separated from toluene and was observed from the gas chromatography, it showed that hexane increased from 0.0.873 to 0.886 moles. Once the mixture of toluene and hexane hit 70 degrees in the experiment, the distillate was used for the gas chromatography. Hexane was higher in the distillate stage. The first drop of condensation appeared at 79°C. The volume of the distillate was 0.88ml and 0.98ml for the residue volume. The initial mixture had a volume ratio of 48.7% for toluene and 51.3% for hexane. The ratio for volume was determined for the distillate and residue. The distillate percent volume ratio for hexane
