Question

Match List I with List II:

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
• B. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• C. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I
• D. A-IV, B-II, C-I, D-II

Hint:

The separation method depends on the boiling points and other properties of the mixtures. For separating organic liquids with significant boiling point differences, fractional or simple distillation is typically used. For mixtures where both components are water-soluble, steam distillation is a good method.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Let's evaluate each mixture and its appropriate separation method:
- A. CHCl\(_3\) + C\(_6\)H\(_5\)NH\(_2\) (Chloroform and Aniline): Fractional distillation is suitable for separating chloroform and aniline due to their differing boiling points. Therefore, A corresponds to III.

- B. Crude oil + petroleum industry: Simple distillation, based on boiling point differences, is employed to separate crude oil components, a standard practice in the petroleum industry. Thus, B corresponds to IV.

- C. Glycerol from spent-lye: Steam distillation is utilized to separate glycerol from spent-lye, a technique for isolating water-soluble organic compounds. Hence, C corresponds to II.

- D. Aniline + water: Distillation under reduced pressure is appropriate for separating aniline and water, given aniline's significantly higher boiling point. This method is effective for components with substantial boiling point disparities. Consequently, D corresponds to I.

The correct pairing is (3) A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I.
