How do you purify Krypton?
Liquefy it by cooling and reducing pressure and then do fractional distillation.
What are the methods of separation of gas liquid?
Rectification. By using a rectification column, that has a pressure and temperature difference across it. The column also contains a series of perforated trays, which allows liquid to trickle down and gas to flow up.
How can nitrogen be retrieved from air?
One way is to liquify air using high pressure and low temperature, then fractional distillation to separate the air into its components, including nitogen.
What is a vacuum distillation?
When pressure is reduced the boiling point will also reduce
How could you get aniline to distill at 100 degrees celsius?
reduced pressure distillation

What benefit does one obtain by carrying out the distillation under reduced pressure?
lower temperature of "boiling point"
What is the name of the process that separates crude oil into more useful substances?
Crude oil is separated by fractional distillation. The components of crude oil are separated by a process which is known as fractional distillation. Crude oil is made of different components whose sizes, weights and boiling temperatures are different from each other. When the crude oil is heated with high pressure steam at a high temperature, it boils and forms vapour. The vapour enters a fractional distillation column and settled in the trays of the column. The trays have holes in them which raise the contact time among the vapour and liquids. The vapour rises in the column and cools, the hotter substances settle at the bottom of the column and the cooler substances rise to the top of the column. The substances in the vapour condense and the fractions of liquid collect in the tray and pass to condensers and storage tanks.
What is fractional distillation distillation and cracking?
fractional distillation is used to separate fuels from crude oils they all have different boiling points so they can be separated easily cracking is when longer chains of hydrocarbons after broken down to make shorter ones which burn more easily.

What are the different types of distillation?
i want to know about pressure distillation

How does operating pressure affect distillation?
Pressure is an important part in distillation because boiling points of different components to be separated depends on pressure, for normal distillation pressure is kept as 1 atmosphere but for components with high boiling points instead of rasing the temperature pressure is lowered till the vapor pressure of the components to be separated, hence the temperature to be raised becomes less, for example in vaccum distillation.
Explain the differences between fractional and simple distillation which is more efficient how the efficiency could be enhanced What is the purpose of adding boiling stones?
The difference is that simple distillation will be used to separate substances within mixtures that have significantly different boiling points; whereas, with fractional distillation, the boiling points are closer and separation must be cared for differently. This is the reason why you must employ the use of an additional piece of apparatus called the fractionating column when undergoing fractional distillation. Based on what is stated above, the more efficient method would have to be Fractional Distillation because it essentially separates the parts of the mixture much more precisely. You could enhance fractional distillation by using boiling stones. The reason for adding the boiling stones is to calm down the boiling of the liquid mixture. You really do not want the boiling to become too violent as is the case with "bumping" which is when the air pressure inside the liquid increases so rapidly that it will literally BUMP the glass while it is trying to expel the excess air pressure. Normally only th air will be relieced out from the opening of the container such as the top (ie. the surface of the liquid), but too much air and too little surface area at the top will cause air to be reliese radially outward and strike the sides of the container. Just try boiling eggs real fast with the stove on high and never turn it down; you'll see it happen.
What 2 conditions are needed during the cracking process fractional distillation?
Fractionating distillation is used to separate liquids which differ in their boiling points by 25 C or more
Is it true that in fractional distillation of petroleum low-boiling hydrocarbons come out first?
Yes Since they have a lower boiling point, they have a higher vapor pressure - or to be more exact, a higher fugacity, than the higher boiling point components at the same temperature.
