Draw an ideal distillation curve (temperature vs. milliliters of distillate) for a 50:50 mixture of
  two miscible liquids. How might one achieve such an ideal distillation?
 
 



Question 2

Given a mixture of compounds G and H. At 75C,
  XG = 0.50 XH = 0.50
  PG = 900 mm Hg PH = 400 mm Hg
  (a) Which compound has the lower boiling point?
  (b) What is the partial vapor pressure of G? of H ?
  (c) If the applied pressure is 760 mm, will the mixture boil at 75C?
  (d) What is the composition of the vapor at 75C?

Answer to Question 1

An ideal distillation such as illustrated below is achieved when a fractional distillation is per
formed, using a fractionating column of the proper HETP for the boiling point difference of
the two miscible liquids.




Answer to Question 2

(a) G
(b) G: PG x (0.50) = 450 mm
H: PH x (0.50) = 200 mm
(c) 450 + 200 = 650 mm Hg, which is under 760 mm Hg and therefore it will not boil
(d) G: 450/650 = 69 mol
H: 200/650 = 31 mol

Prostaglandins were first isolated from human semen in Sweden in the 1930s. They were so named because the researcher thought that they came from the prostate gland. In fact, prostaglandins exist and are synthesized in almost every cell of the body.
