using it. It is done by a method called fractional distillation which involves separation of two or more liquids having different boiling points. The refining is done by changing the liquid into its gaseous state and then cooling the gaseous mixture at controlled temperatures such that at a time only one of the vapours having boiling point I liquefies first. This is generally done by a special tower called fractionating column. Fractional distillation of petroleum Crude petroleum is heated to a temperature

SUMMARY The aim is to observe distillation process of ethanol-water solution and to measure the alcohol content after process in this experiment. 500 ml of solution with an alcohol content of 32% (v/v) is used for this experiment. Temperature values are recorded for every 10 ml alcohol obtained in the flask. The process is repeated in our experiment and for the first process‚ the data collection process continues until the distillate reaches to 200 ml. The concentration of alcohol is measured for

Simple Distillation‚ Gas Chromatography: Preparation of Synthetic Banana Oil Introduction This experiment gave us the opportunity to work with a variety of new procedures as well as practice procedures that are new to us within the past few weeks of labs. Within the context of the scenario‚ we find that a distilling company that markets a popular banana liqueur is having problems. The banana plantation that they use to create their banana extract was hit hard by a hurricane and their reserves

Distillation is a process in which compounds that are in the same solution become separated by their boiling points. For this to occur‚ a heterogeneous mixture has to be placed into a distiller‚ in this experiment a solution of 1:1 water and methanol was distilled. When distilling substances there are various methods of distillation that can be used. In this lab‚ simple and fractional distillation was used. The simple distiller is composed of a 100ml round bottom flask that is attached to: a

Distillation of vodka Athena Bianca Mattus*‚ Rency Mae Silvestre‚ Maria Robelaine Tenefrancia‚ Shaira Mae Yu Department of Chemistry‚ College of Science *Corresponding author; e-mail: tinabianca_09@yahoo.com Abstract Through simple distillation‚ the percent ethanol and percent loss of 15 mL of vodka was computed. The calculations were supported by a flammability test. With the distillation process reaching 100oC‚ 6.0 mL of distillate was collected. The determination of ethanol from the distillate

Distillation of Alcoholic Beverages Abstract We used a Quickfit Set Up in order to perform a Simple Distillation procedure. We used 15mL of The Bar as our distillate. We separated and calculated the alcohol content of the said beverage by the distillation process. Introduction Alcoholic beverages are undeniably part of our culture for a long time already. It has many purposes‚ like‚ medical‚ hygienic‚ recreational. But‚ like everything else‚ if taken excessively‚ that is a different story

Fractional Distillation of an Ethanol- water Mixture Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to understand the process of distilling a solution. Thesolution of 50/50 ethanol-water was used in the experiment. Using fractional distillationapparatus ethanol-water mixture was separated. The fractional use of copper sponge wasused in distillation process which created the heat exchange area between the vapor of ethanol and liquid water. The fractional distillation process yield 9.5 ml of ethanol

f Fractional Distillation of a Solution Results 1. On a single graph‚ plot boiling point versus volume of distillate curves for the two distillations of the cyclohexane/toluene solutions (one from the simple distillation experiment and one from the fractional distillation experiment). The graph is to be computer generated and presentation quality (e.g.‚ appropriately scaled and labeled axes‚ descriptive title‚ and discernable data points). The data points are to be connected with a smooth

Is Distillation? Answer: Distillation is a widely used method for separating mixtures based on differences in the conditions required to change the phase of components of the mixture. To separate a mixture of liquids‚ the liquid can be heated to force components‚ which have different boiling points‚ into the gas phase. The gas is then condensed back into liquid form and collected. Repeating the process on the collected liquid to improve the purity of the product is called double distillation. Although

Distillation Purpose: To conduct the distillation process‚ simple or fractional. Procedure: 1. Add 5ml of 20% ethanol: water mix to the distillation flask. 2. Add 23 stir bar 3. Make sure that the thermometer bulb is just below the Claisen Head‚ carefully. Be very gentle with the thermometers and take care not to break them. 4. Label 3 vials‚ 1‚2‚ and 3. 5. Place receiving vial 1 on ice to collect the distillate 6. Start the distillation by piling up hot sand around the distillation flask with
