What gas is obtained by fractional distillation?

Most of the gases in air, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Argon and others are obtained by fractional distillation of liquid air.


Which one of the following is not obtained by the fractional distillation of water he or xe or ne?

Xe (xenon) is not obtained through the fractional distillation of water. Xenon is a noble gas and is typically obtained through the fractional distillation of liquid air. Water can be fractionally distilled to obtain gases like hydrogen and oxygen, and neon can also be obtained through fractional distillation processes.


What is the advantage of simple distillation to fractional distillation?

Whether it is better to use fractional or simple distillation depends on the liquids being separated and on the boiling points of the liquids. When there is a great difference between the boiling points of the liquids, simple distillation may be a better option. Likewise, if there is a small difference in boiling points, then fractional distillation is used.


What is the fractional composition of the mixture in question?

The fractional composition of a mixture refers to the proportion of each component in the total mixture. It is typically expressed as a fraction or percentage.


Which liquid would be the first to be collected in the fractional distillation?

The liquid with the lowest boiling point will be the first to be collected in fractional distillation. This is because it vaporizes at a lower temperature and rises first in the fractionating column before condensing.
