Which of the following techniques is most suitable for purification of cyclohexanone from a mixture containing benzoic acid, isoamyl alcohol, cyclohexane and cyclohexanone?
IR spectroscopy is used for the purification of cyclohexanone from a mixture of benzoic acid, isoamyl alcohol, cyclohexane and cyclohexanone because in IR spectroscopy each functional group appears at a certain peak. IR spectroscopy exploits the fact that molecules absorb specific frequencies that are characteristic of their structure
