Question:

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : A mixture of chloroform and aniline can be separated by simple distillation.

Statement II : When separating aniline from a mixture of aniline and water by steam distillation aniline boils below its boiling point. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

  1. Statement-I is false but Statement II is true

  2. Both Statement-I and Statement II are false

  3. Statement-I is true but Statement II is false

  4. Both Statement-I and Statement II are true


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:

Statement 1 : B.P. of chloroform $=334 \mathrm{~K}$

B.P. of aniline $=457 \mathrm{~K}$

thus can be seprated of simple distillation.

Statement 2 : Mixture of aniline and water seprated by simple distillation.
