A tall fractionating column has 2 main parts 1- tall :usualy mean high pressure 2-fractionating column: means sepration of a componant usualy you will find something like propane fractionation means removing propane I hope I have cleared some of the meaning

Why are glass beads used in a fractionating column?

Glass beads are used in a fractionating column to provide surface area for vapor-liquid contact and enhance the separation of components in a mixture. The beads help in achieving more efficient distillation by increasing the number of theoretical plates, which improves the separation efficiency of the column.

What is used to separate fractional distillation?

Fractional distillation uses a fractionating column, which is a tall column filled with materials that help separate the different components of a mixture based on their boiling points. This column allows for multiple distillation stages to occur, resulting in better separation of the components.
