42. Water can be separated from alcohol water mixture by A.Decantation B.Evaporation C.Distillation D.Sublimation
Answer: Option C Solution: To separate a mixture of alcohol (ethanol) and water, you can use a process known as fractional distillation. This technique relies on the fact that the compounds in the mixture have different boiling points. Since ethanol boils at a lower temperature (78.5 degrees Celsius) than water, the alcohol vaporizes while most of the water remains a liquid.
