Two miscible liquids A and B are present...

Two miscible liquids A and B are present in a solution. The boiling point of A is `60^(@)C` while that of B is `90^(@)C`. Suggest a method to separate them.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The separation can be done by the process of simple distillation. The vapours of the liquid A will rise in the flask when heated to a temperature of `60^(@)C`. They will pass through the condenser and will collect as distillate. The liquid B with higher boiling point will remain in the flask.
