Question
State the correct technique for the separation of the following mixture.
a low boiling point liquid from a high boiling point liquid.

Solution
By fractional distillation:
Miscible low boiling point liquid will evaporate and is collected in the receiver, leaving behind the miscible high boiling point liquid in the flask.
