Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:Reason for no direct connection of filter flask to water aspirator pump in vacuum filtration should be determined.

Concept introduction:Vacuum filtration is process that is used to separate solids from solvents after recrystallization. Recrystallization is technique that is used for purification of organic compounds. This process includes dissolution of solid in specific solvent at high temperature and then crystals are made again by process of cooling. Temperature of crystals is decreased to allow impurities to remain in solution only.

1 Why is the separation of two liquids better if the distillation is carried out at a slow rate rather than at a fast rate? 2 Why does the water enter the condenser at the lowest point and leave from the highest point? 3 Why is it dangerous to carry out a distillation in a sealed system with no vent to the atmosphere?
