MCQ
The mixture of ethanol and water cannot be separated by distillation because
- ✓
- B
- CTheir boiling points are very near
- D
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
a
The solution of ethanol and water formed an azeotropic mixture i.e a constant boiling point mixture and hence, their proportions cannot be altered or changed by simple distillation.So, absolute ethanol cannot be separated by distillation because they form a constant boiling mixture.
