can we separate alcohol dissolved in water if yes describe the procedure. if no explain.no link please....
Dear Student,
Alcohol and water are two miscible liquid can not separate by separating funnel.but these are separated by fractional distillation process. because boiling points is more than 25 K.Alcohol boils at lower temperature than water,the alcohol vaporise while most of water remains as liquid.A good distillation column can produce 95% alcohol and 5% water.
Regards
