Why would the steam distillation of a mixture of vanillin and eugenol result in the distillation of eugenol only?

Because is and esential oil and these are not soluble on water and volatile enough to be distilled by steam, when you use steam distillation you do the extraction step and the purification step in one technique.

What is the importance of distillation process?
By using the process of distillation where a liquid is evaporated and condenced into vapor, purification or extraction of of an essence is the result.
What is solute mixture?
Solution is the mixture and the result of a solute and a solvent
When two or more substances are combined so each substance maintains its own properties the result is called what?
It's called a mixture.
What type of mixture is salt dissolved in water?
Salt dissolved in water is a solution, not a mixture. The result is called a saline solution.
How many compounds have zirconium in it?
None. Zirconium is not a chemical compound but a mixture. As a result, anything that contains zirconium in it will be a mixture.
What is the Lewis structure of ligroin?
Ligroin, or benzine (also known as petroleum ether) is not a specific compound, but a range of hydrocarbons that result during fractional distillation of petroleum. There is no Lewis dot structure for a mixture.
What is advantages and disadvantages of distillation?
The distillation method's advantages are that it will make a pure result. The disadvantages are that the method is time consuming and is not cheap. The distilled method as a result is avoided unless needed.

Why is that slow distillation better than fast distillation?
In order to prevent entrainment or liquid carryover, distillation must be slow. If it is heated vigorously, it will result in loss of products and carry over of other components as liquid.

Why must a container be sealed in distillation?
Short answer: Distillation heats a liquid mixture and then cools the vapor that boils off to recover the more volatile portion of the original mixture. If you have a leaky apparatus you can lose a lot of this volatile portion because it will leak into the atmosphere before it has a chance to condense into your receiving vessel. This wastes energy and can create a fire or explosion hazard if you are distilling flammable liquids. It will create health or environmental problems if you are working with toxic materials or materials that are harmful to the environment. Long answer: Distillation works by either heating a liquid to produce vapor or reducing the pressure over a liquid to make it boil into a vapor at a lower temperatures. The vapor must be condensed by cooling to recover the "distallate" product you are after. With heated distillation you will lose much of the vapor through before you can condense it if you have a leaky apparatus. This is especially true if the distillation occurs at high pressures. For vacuum distillation you may not be able to create enough vacuum to cause the liquid mixture to boil if there are any large leaks or you will waste a lot of power creating the needed vacuum pressure in a leaky distillation column.
Is dissolving salt result in a mixture?
no it is not
What method will separate clear water from muddy water?
I would use distillation to separate a mixture of water and alcohol. Distillation separates the components of a solution by using the different boiling points of the components. The component with the lowest boiling point separates out first.
What is the result when combined substances retain their individual properties?
The form a mixture. They do not react with each other.
What is the importance of process?
By using the process of distillation where a liquid is evaporated and condenced into vapor, purification or extraction of of an essence is the result.
