  • Assertion(A): Simple distillation can help separating a mixture of propan-1-ol (boiling point 97°C) and propanone (boiling point 56°C). Reason(R): Liquids with a difference of more than 20°C in their boiling points be separated by simple distillation.

 In the following questions a statement of Assertion (A) followed by a statement of Reason (R) is given. Choose the correct option out of the choices given below each question.

Assertion (A): Simple distillation can help in separating a mixture of propan-1-ol (boiling point 97{^\circ}C) and propanone (boiling point 56{^\circ}C).

 Reason (R): Liquids with a difference of more than 20{^\circ}C in their boiling points can be separated by simple distillation.

(i) Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A.

(ii) Both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

(iii) Both A and R are not correct.

(iv) A is not correct but R is correct.

 

Answers (1)
