Heptane, pentane and octane are accidentally mixed. They all have different boiling points. Pentane boils at 360 ° C, hexane boils at 690 ° C and octane boils at 12 ° C. What method would you use to separate these liquids? Explain how the method works.

Fractional distillation

Explanation:

Heat the mixture upto 700°C

The compuond with low boiling point will evaporate first and the compound with higher boiling point will evaporate last.

answer : a model is often used to explain and make things easier to understand when any scientific topic needs to be demonstrated and explained.

as in this case where a scientist wants to use a model to present the results of his detailed scientific investigation. he should do it as it will him to make the audience understand the concept in a much better way. also, it can be changed according to new scientific understandings.
