Mass Transfer - Engineering
Q1: Steam distillation is not recommended to be used, if theA azeotropic mixture is to be separated and the final product is miscible with water.
B liquids decompose, if distilled directly at atmospheric pressure.
C material can not be distilled by indirect heating even under low pressure, because of the high boiling temperature.
D material to be distilled is thermally unstable or has the tendency to react with other components associated with it, at the boiling temperature.
ANS:A - azeotropic mixture is to be separated and the final product is miscible with water. An azeotropic mixture is a liquid mixture of two or more substances that boils at a constant temperature and composition, meaning that the vapor phase has the same composition as the liquid phase. This makes separating the components of an azeotropic mixture challenging through conventional distillation methods because the vapor and liquid phases remain in equilibrium throughout the distillation process. In cases where an azeotropic mixture needs to be separated, and the final product is miscible with water, steam distillation is not recommended. Here's why:
