In Aniline & water mixture, Aniline can be seperate by
- ✓
- B
- C
- D
Distillation under reduced pressure
Answera
Steam distillation is a separation process which consists in distilling water together with other volatile and non-volatile components.
The steam distillation process works on the principle that when a mixture of two or more undissolved liquids are heated, while ensuring that the surfaces of both liquids are in contact with the atmosphere, the vapor pressure exerted by the system increases.
This is because it now becomes the sum of the vapor pressures of all of the components of the mixture combined together.
This allows for evaporation of elements with high boiling points at much lower temperatures merely by allowing them to form a mixture with water.
Aniline is separated from a mixture by using this method.

Complete combustion of $750\, g$ of an organic compound provides $420\, g$ of $CO _{2}$ and $210\, g$ of $H _{2} O$. The percentage composition of carbon and hydrogen in organic compound is $15.3$ and ............. respectively. (Round off to the Nearest Integer)
Answerc
$44 gm CO _{2}$, have $12 gm$ carbon
So, $420 gm CO _{2} \Rightarrow \frac{12}{44} \times 420$
$\Rightarrow \frac{1260}{11} gm$ carbon
$\Rightarrow 114.545$ gram carbon
So, $\%$ of carbon $=\frac{114.545}{750} \times 100$
$=15.3 \%$
$18 gm H _{2} O \Rightarrow 2 gm H _{2}$
$210 gm \Rightarrow \frac{2}{18} \times 210$
$=23.33 gm H _{2}$
$So , \% H _{2} \Rightarrow \frac{23.33}{750} \times 100=3.11 \%$

Answerb
In Duma's method of estimation of Nitrogen.
$0.1840\, gm$ of organic compound gave $30 \,mL$ of nitrogen which is collected at $287\, K$ And $758\,mm$ of $Hg$.
Given ; Aqueous tension at $287 \,K =14 \,mm$ of $Hg$. Hence actual pressure $=(758-14)$

Aniline-water mixture can be separated by
Answera
Steam distillation is a separation process which consists in distilling water together with other volatile and non-volatile components.
The steam distillation process works on the principle that when a mixture of two or more undissolved liquids are heated, while ensuring that the surfaces of both liquids are in contact with the atmosphere, the vapor pressure exerted by the system increases.
This is because it now becomes the sum of the vapor pressures of all of the components of the mixture combined together.
This allows for evaporation of elements with high boiling points at much lower temperatures merely by allowing them to form a mixture with water.
Aniline is separated from a mixture by using this method.

How will you separate a solution (miscible) of benzene $ + CHC{l_3}$
Answerc
(c)Distillation particularly fractional distillation because the boiling point of benzene $({80\,^o}C)$ and chloroform $({61.5\,^o}C)$ are close.
Fractional distillation involves repeated distillations and condensations, in a fractionating column. As a result of distillation and condensation at each point of the fractionating column, the vapours rising up become richer in more volatile component and the liquid falling back into the flask becomes richer in less volatile component. Thus, the low boiling liquid distils first while the higher boiling liquid distils afterwards.

Given:
$\mathrm{m}=0.25 \mathrm{g}, \mathrm{V}_{1}=40 \mathrm{ml}, \mathrm{T}_{1}=300 \mathrm{K}, \mathrm{P}_{1}=725 \mathrm{mm}-25 \mathrm{mm}=700 \mathrm{mm}$
$\mathrm{P}_{0}=760 \mathrm{mm}, \mathrm{T}_{0}=273 \mathrm{K}, \mathrm{V}_{0}=?$
$\mathrm{V}_{0}=\frac{\mathrm{P}_{1} \mathrm{V}_{1}}{\mathrm{T}_{1}} \times \frac{\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{o}}}{\mathrm{P}_{0}}=\frac{700 \mathrm{mm} \times 40 \mathrm{ml}}{300 \mathrm{K}} \times \frac{273 \mathrm{K}}{760 \mathrm{mm}}=33.53 \mathrm{ml}$
At STP, 22400 ml of nitrogen occupies 22400 ml.
22400mL OF $\mathrm{N}_{2}$ at STP weighs $=28 \mathrm{gm}$
Hence the mass of nitrogen which corresponds to $33.53 \mathrm{ml}$ is $\frac{28 \mathrm{g} \times 33.53 \mathrm{ml}}{22400 \mathrm{ml}}=0.0419 \mathrm{g}$.
