The blue line on the diagram illustrates the effect of using fractional distillation to separate a mixture of hexane (C6H14) and heptane (C7H16). If one starts a fractional distillation with a 0.20 mole fraction of hexane, what is the approximate mole fraction of hexane in the vapor phase after two evaporation condensation cycles? Figure B A temperaturecomposition diagram for hexane (C6H14)-heptane (C7H16) mixtures.

Use an apparatus similar to that shown and assume that the round-bottom flask holds 10 mL and that the Claisen head has an internal volume of about 2 mL in the vertical section. At the end of a distillation, vapor would fill this volume, but it could not be forced through the system. No liquid would remain in the distillation flask. Assuming this holdup volume of 12 mL, use the ideal gas law and assume a boiling point of 100°C (760 mm Hg) to calculate the number of microliters of liquid (d = 0.9 g/mL, MW = 200) that would recondense into the distillation flask on cooling.

Based on the melting point of your impure solid, you look at the given samples and believe you havecompound A. Compound A is recrystallized using a mixed solvent system of ethanol and water. You add1 ml of hot ethanol to your sample and it doesn’t completely dissolve. You continue to add hot ethanolbut there isn’t any change. Some solid remains. What should you do next?
