    Fractional Distillation & Gas Chromatography Exp. 1 Pre-Lab: 1) When two substances whose molecules are very similar from a liquid solution‚ the vapor pressure of the mixture related to vapor pressure of the pure substance. Also it could be defined as a two liquid are ideal solution when they don’t react with each other and they make no association. 2) Are a mixture of at least two different liquid‚ and known also as a mixture of two or more liquid in such away that its component

    Both the graph and the table represent the same thing‚ the temperature of the solution during fractional distillation. At the start of the fractional distillation‚ before we started the fire‚ it was 25° celcius. At the end of the fractional distillation‚ when all of the liquid was gone‚ it was 99.3 degrees. This set of data is not the first time we did the fractional distillation‚ it’s actually probably the 3rd or 4th. The first time we didn’t actually record the temperature‚ we just looked for the

    Arranged a fractional distillation apparatus used a 100mL round-bottomed flask for the solution and used a 50mL round- bottomed flask cooled in ice an ice bath as the receiver of the reaction. The 65% sulfuric solution was prepared in a clean 125mL Erlenmeyer flask it contained 20.0 mL of deionized water and 20mL of concentrated sulfuric acid was added carefully with some swirling in between. The diluted acid was cooled with an ice water bath to 20-25ºC. to the cooled sulfuric acid cyclohexanol was

    Article for Crude Oil Crude oil: good or bad? You decide Recently I have discovered an interesting fuel which humans use. It is a sludgy‚ black‚ gloopy liquid like fuel called “crude oil”. They have found it in many of the earth’s oceans and I believe it has come from many dead animals piling on top of each other but didn’t decay properly because of the anaerobic conditions making layers of rock. The heat of the rocks and the increased pressure turned the dead animals into crude oil. I have found

    The process of distillation is commonly used to purify liquids. The process of distillation allows separation of distillates based on the temperatures at which they boil. Liquids with higher volatility boil at lower rates than liquids that are less volatile. Because of this when a mixture of two substances is created there will be a spike in the boiling point. At the spike the more volatile substance has vaporized and condense out of the mixture leaving the less volatile liquid. Thus the temperature
