The characteristic property that allows distillation to separate a mixture of liquids is a liquids boiling point. The conducting vapors are put in a cooling device where they are allowed to condense. The condensation is collecting into a different flask.

What physical property of hydrocarbons is used for fractional distillation?
If the hydrocarbons are in the liquid state then their differential boiling points are used in separation - fractional distillation. Some hydrocarbons are also separated by their differential solubility in some organic solvents. =)
What is a characteristic property of an element?
One characteristic property of an element is the number of electrons it has.
Is chemical reactivity a characteristic of property?
Yes, it is a characteristic property for any element or compound.
What can a mixture of liquids be separated by?
2 immiscible liquids can be separated byseparating funnel
Is color a characteristic property of an element?

What is the property of fractional distillation process rely on called?
Distillation is based on the differences between boiling points.
What property of hydrocarbons lets fractional distillation of crude oil work?
The boiling points of chemical compounds are different.
What physical property of oxygen enables it to be separated from the other components of air?
They are both difficult to separate because both of these have very little difference in their boiling points.This makes separating them difficult. Hence, they are separated by fractional distillation
What property of the fractions makes the fractional distillation works?
Because the mixed liquids have different boiling points allowing the different liquids to boil at different times!
