Key Points: Fractional Distillation Method

  • Used for separation of a mixture of two or more miscible liquids with close boiling points (difference < 25°C).
  • Uses a fractionating column for repeated vaporisation and condensation.
  • Distillate collected in fractions at different temperatures.
  • Example: Acetone (b.p. 330 K) and methyl alcohol (b.p. 338 K); benzene and toluene.
  • Cannot be used to separate azeotropic mixtures (constant boiling point mixtures).
