Which of the following statements are correct ?
A. Glycerol is purified by vacuum distillation because it decomposes at its normal boiling point
B. Aniline can be purified by steam distillation as aniline is miscible in water.
C. Ethanol can be separated from ethanol water mixture by azeotropic distillation because it forms azeotrope.
D. An organic compound is pure, if mixed M.P. is remained same.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
A. Glycerol is purified by vacuum distillation because it decomposes at its normal boiling point
B. Aniline can be purified by steam distillation as aniline is miscible in water.
C. Ethanol can be separated from ethanol water mixture by azeotropic distillation because it forms azeotrope.
D. An organic compound is pure, if mixed M.P. is remained same.
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- A, B, C only
- A, C, D only
- B, C, D only
- A, B, D only
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
• A: True. Glycerol decomposes at its normal boiling point, so it is purified by vacuum distillation.
• B: False. Aniline is immiscible in water but can still be purified by steam distillation.
• C: True. Ethanol forms an azeotrope with water, making azeotropic distillation effective for separation.
• D: True. A pure organic compound exhibits the same melting point even when mixed with another sample of the same compound.
