A. This technique is applied to substances which are steam volatile and are immiscible with water.
In steam distillation, steam from a steam generator is passed through a heated flask containing the
liquid to be distilled. The mixture of steam and the volatile organic compound is condensed and collected.
The compound is later separated from water using a separating funnel.
In steam distillation, the liquid boils when the sum of vapour pressure due to the organic liquid (Ps) and
that due to water (P:) becomes equal to the atmospheric pressure (p). i. p= Pi+ Po.
Aniline is separated by this technique.
17,How would you separate the aniline (CcHsNH,) from urea 7
A. Aniline is steam volatile and is sparingly soluble in water, while urea is non-volatile. Therefore, steam
distillation is used.
18.How are high-boiling liquids, or liquids which decompose at or below their normal boiling points, distilled
OR what is the principle of distillation under reduced pressure?
A. DISTILLATION UNDER REDUCED PRESSURE: This method is used to purify liquids having very high
boiling points and those which decompose at or below their boiling points.
Such liquids are made to boil at a temperature lower than their normal boiling points by reducing the
Pressure on their surface.
A liquid boils at a temperature at which its vapour pressure is equal to the external pressure. The
Pressure is reduced with the help of a water pump or vacuum pump.
Glycerol can be separated by using this technique,
19.Explain the technique of differential extraction giving an example.
A. DIFFERENTIAL EXTRACTION : When an organic compound Is present in an aqueous medium. It is
Separated by shaking it with an organic solvent in which it is more soluble than in water. The organic
folvent andthe aqueous solution should be immiscible with each other so that they form two distinct
‘The organic solvent is later removed by distillation or by evaporation to get back the compound.
Differential extraction is carried out in a separating funnel. For example, benzoic acid can be extracted
from a water solution using benzene.
20.What is the basic principle of chromatography ?
‘A. The method is based on the differential adsorption of the various components in a mixture on a suitable
adsorbent by using suitable solvent known as eluent.
21.Describe the method of column chromatography.
A. Chromatography is based on the differential adsorption of different compounds present in the mixture on
a suitable adsorbent, e.g. alumina, silica gel and so on.
In column chromatography, a suitable adsorbent is packed in a column to act as a stationary phase. The
mixture is dissolved in a suitable solvent to act as a mobile phase. The solution is poured on the top of the
column, Different solutes are adsorbed in different parts of the adsorbent column. They are then eluted out
by @ suitable solvent. The weakly adsorbed compound willbe elutd first and the one that i strongly
adsorbed later. :
22.Name the adsorbent used in colurn chromatography.
A. The adsorbent used in the column chromatography is a slurry of solid alumina (Al,Os).
23.What do you understand by the stationary phase and the moving phase in paper chromatography ?
‘A. Chromatography paper contains water trapped in it, acts as the stationary phase.

moving phase.
24.Explain the principle of paper chromatography.
A. Paper chromatography is type of partition chromatography which is based on continuous differential
partitioning of components of a mixture between stationary and mobile phase:
