Why are alkali metals volatile?

The alkali metals are the group 1 metals, lithium, sodium, potassium etc. There is only one valence electron involved in the metallic bond and therefore the bond is weaker. In comparison to the majority other metals they are generally low melting and have low boiling points. As an example sodium melts at about 98 C and boils at 883 C. The relatively low boiling point is an indication of their relatively low volatility. Note that volatility is normally a term associated with very low boiling point substances such as acetone, boiling point 56 C


Why ethyl alcohol and water cannot be separated into pure components by fractional distillation?

Due to an effect called the aziotropic effect. Some of the water remains bound to the ethanol raising the BP and getting dragged over with it. The same thing happens with sugars from a wash. Further to this, ethanol is hygroscopic so it will absorb water from the atmosphere when exposed. The best you can do is between 90 - 98% ethanol.

What is -175 C on the Kelvin scale?

The answer is 98.15 K (approx.). The Kelvin scale starts at absolute zero and is used in scientific laboratories. Celsius is for general use and set 0 and 100 as melting and boiling point of water respectively. To convert from C to K, add 273.15 to C.-175 deg C = -175 + 273.15 = 98.15 K

Why is it wrong to say that water boils at 100 degrees Celsius?

The boiling point of water depends on any additional chemicals that might be in it, and on the atmospheric pressure. PURE water boils at 100 degrees Celsius at "standard" sea-level pressure of 29.92 inches of mercury.
