What is it called when you separate liquids by boiling and condensing them at different temperatures?

Fractionation. One other specialized application is called distillation.
I'd put it differently. Distillation refers to any boil and condense process. Alcoholic spirits are distilled and in many cases the idea is not to separate the components too much.
Simple distillation does separate liquids at different temperatures though you would not normally refer to it as fractionation.
To do fractionation effectively the cycle must be repeated many times, which can be done automatically with a fractionating column. The components that emerge in succession are called fractions.

What differences does the distillation rely on to separate out parts of a solution?
Distillation depends on differences in boiling and condensing temperatures of the mixture being distilled
What is the saturation temperature of vapour or the boiling temperature of a liquid?
Different liquids have different boiling temperatures, even the same liquid will have different boiling temperatures at varying pressures.
How do you separate components of crude oil with different boiling points?

How do you separate some thing with different boiling points?
Using distillation
Why do chemicals separate out in a particular order?
In fractional distillation, the substances in a mixture are heated to their boiling points. Different substances have different boiling points, so will be separated at different times. The answer to your question is simply because they have different boiling points.

Why is it possible to separate mixtures of liquids by boiling?
Different liquids boil at different temperatures. When the boiling points (the temperature at which a liquid boils) are sufficiently different, boiling can be used to seperate the liquids
What is the saturation temperature of vapour or the boiling temperature of a liquid?
Different liquids have different boiling temperatures, even the same liquid will have different boiling temperatures at varying pressures.
What is the boiling temperature in degrees Celsius?
Different substances have different boiling temperatures.
How does distillation separate a mixture of differant liquids?
We can separate a mixture of different liquids in the process of distillation by evaporating and condensing to make sure nothing is dissolved in it. Distillation as a separation method is based on the differences between boiling points of liquids.
What is to purify by boiling and condensing?
This is known as a distillation. Ethanol and water can be separated using this process because their boiling points are different which allows them to be "boiled off" at different temperatures.
How condensing and boiling are different?
Simply put, boiling is the process by which a liquid becomes a gas while condensation is the opposite; it is the process by which a gas becomes a liquid.
Is boiling point is always same as the melting point?
NO!!! Boiling point is the temperature when a liquid changes to a gas. Melting point is the temperature when a solid changes to a liquid. Remember For rising temperatures It melts then boils For falling temperatures It condenses then freezes. Melting/Freezing point is the same temperature for change of state solid/liquid Boiling/Condensing point is the same temperature for change of state liquid/gas

Distillation
How do you separate diesel and petrol?
Distillation, Gasoline has a lower boiling-point, so it will separate-out first.
What is the boiling point of 70 percent ethanol?
The ethanol part of the mixture will boil at 78.4C, the rest of the substances will boil at their respective boiling points. This property provides the basis for fractional distillation, a method that can be used to refine crude oil into different types of products by heating the mixture to progressively higher boiling temperatures, then collecting and condensing vapor.
