Air condenser can be used when the boiling point of the solvent is very high, as the air temperature will to sufficient to condense the solvent vapour. Water condenser is generally used when the solvent boiling temperature is less e.g., water, ethanol etc.

Why it is necessary to filter off the anhydrous magnesium sulfate before distillation?

Drying with magnesium sulfate leaves very tiny residues in your flask which need to be filtered off as decanting won't get rid of them. Leaving these tiny residues in the flask while running a distillation can cause the solvent to "bump"; in other words to violently erupt and run into your condenser, thus rendering your distillation ineffective.


What is needed to change a vapour back to liquid?

A condenser. In the Chemistry Lab a condenser consists of a tube which is supplied with cold water. This tube surrounds another tube running through it which has the vapour passing through it. The vapour condenses into a receiver.


How does the process of running alcohol affect the efficiency of a distillation system?

The process of running alcohol can affect the efficiency of a distillation system by impacting the separation of alcohol from other components. Higher alcohol content in the initial mixture can lead to faster distillation and higher efficiency, while impurities or lower alcohol content can slow down the process and reduce efficiency.


What branch of chemistry deals only with chemical combinations of elements other than carbon?

This, technically, is a trick question. A mostly true, useful answer, but not entirely accurate one is to say, that "Organic chemistry is the study of Carbon compounds. Inorganic Chemistry, is the study of everything else." Here's the problem. Organic Chemistry is a highly dense complex study of all the strange and wonderful properties of carbon that lead it to be the building block of life, and it's end results. Carbon lives a double life, however, and isn't exclusively defined by it's organic strangeness. For example, one of the sub-branches of inorganic chemistry is industrial chemistry. You study that, and discover that carbon is still there, and still doing strange things. Just those strange things (look at diamonds, nano tubes and properties of graphite) are more typical of other elements on the periodic table. So this is Clark Kent carbon, and Organic Chemistry is about Super Man carbon. They are the same thing but operate in different ways. It is true that Organic Chemistry is almost all about carbon, but that doesn't preclude carbon taking various other roles in other branches of chemistry. Why? Because carbon is so common. It can't beat out Hydrogen, naturally, but it is running neck and neck with Nitrogen, which is still insanely common. You can't really do chemistry in the real world for very long without tripping over carbon in some form or compound. I suppose there may be some branch of theoretical Chemistry that attempts to extrapolate properties of a universe without Carbon, but... that's pretty out there. You are unlikely to run into it outside of a sheltered university environment.
