Question
Chapter 4.6, Problem 4E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Reason for citral to float on surface of aqueous distillate should be determined.
Concept introduction:Steam distillation is technique that is used to separate and purify volatile compounds either immiscible or almost immiscible in water. This method makes use of codistillation of mixture of water and other organic liquids. This can also be applied for separation and purification of some organic solids.
Vapor that is collected in distillation process and is allowed to condense into liquid is known as distillate.
