How do we separate two miscible liquids?


A mixture of two miscible liquids can be separated by the process of fractional distillation.

Fractional distillation is the process of distillation where the distillate is collected in fractions boiling at different temperatures.

Example: Separation of Oil and Water.


Distillation is a process by which water is removed as vapours by boiling, and then the vapours are condensed to give back the water. This will help to separate oil and water because the boiling point of water is very less than oil. Thus it can boil off faster than oil from the mixture of water and oil.
