Which would you expect to have a lower boiling point assuming they were of similar molecular weights a hydrophobic liquid or a hydrophilic one?

hydrophobic would have the lower boiling point as there are less forces of attraction between the molecules. Hydrophilic liquids are polar and therefore have interactions between themselves.


Why can 2 liquids have same boiling points but be different liquids?

The answer is simple: it is easy to separe liquids with very different boiling points.


What physical and chemical properties would you expect to find in two different samples of a pure substance?

Physically I would expect to find the same boiling and melting points, and the same density. Chemically, I would expect the same reactivity with other substances.


How can separate 2 mixed liquids from each other?

In most cases, two mixed liquids can best be separated by the process of distillation, in which the liquid with the lower boiling point is boiled off and collected as vapor, and it can then condense back into a liquid. It is also possible to separate two mixed liquids by cooling them to the point that one of the liquids freezes; no two liquids would have exactly the same freezing point, just as they do not have exactly the same boiling point (of course, if the freezing points or the boiling points are very close, that makes the separation process harder).


How does impurities affect the boiling point of liquid?

Let's say substance A is the substance and substance B is the impurity. The boiling point of the mixture would be somewhere between that of A and B, depending on the amount of impurities in the mixture.

How would you separate two liquids in a mixture that have different boiling points?

One rather simplified example is the fractional distillation of crude oil to produce a wide range of petroleum products: diesel, petrol, plastics, and so on. The fractional distillation process depends on the boiling points of the various liquids required.


What types of mixture do fractional distillation separate?

for mixtures that are miscible but have different boiling points

yes

Normally you would use a saucepan to boil liquids.


Why can you smell perfume when you take the lid off?

Like most liquids, perfumes have a low level of constant evaporation and condensation. If you left the lid alone, the perfume vapor would re-condense. However, when you take the lid off of a perfume bottle, some of the perfume vapor rises into your nasal cavities, triggering the smell.


Distillation can be used to seperate solutions of miscible liquids because?

For basic idea, different liquid had different boiling point thus upon boiling the vapour would contain more of the lower boiling point and separated out.


What is the boiling point of pbso4?

Lead(II) sulfate melts at over a 10000C. I can't find a boiling point and I am not surprised- I would expect decomposition at such temperatures.

Would you expect the boiling point of chlorine to be higher or lower than that of iodine?

The boiling point of chlorine is -34.6 degrees C and the boiling point of iodine is 184 degrees C so iodine's boiling point is massively higher
