3. Two liquids (A) and (B) can be separated by the method of fractional distillation. The boiling point of liquid (A) is less than boiling point of liquid (B). Which of the liquids do you expect to come out first in the distillate? Explain.

3. When the difference in boiling points of two liquids is not much then simple distillation cannot be used to separate them. Vapours of such liquids are formed within the same temperature range and are condensed simultaneously. The technique of fractional distillation is used in such cases. In this technique, vapours of a liquid mixture are passed through a fractionating column before condensation. The fractionating column is fitted over the mouth of the round bottom flask. The liquid (A) with low boiling point will distill first.

65. Option (i)
i.e., Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A is the answer since in paper chromatography, a special quality of paper known as chromatography paper is used. Chromatography paper contains water molecules trapped in it which acts as the stationary phase. A strip of chromatography paper spotted at the base with the solution of the mixture is suspended in a suitable solvent or a mixture of solvents which acts as the mobile phase. The solvent rises up the paper by capillary action and flows over the spot. The paper selectively

64. Option (iii) i.e., Both A and R are not correct is the answer since sulphur is estimated by Carius method in the form of white precipitate of BaSO4 on heating with fuming and BaCl2. If light yellow solid is obtained means impurities are present. It is filtered, washed and then dried to get pure BaSO4 .

63. Option (iv) i.e., A is not correct, but R is correct is the answer since hybridization of C can be found out by counting σ bonds and π bonds present on C atom. This can be shown as-

If C has 3σ bonds then it is sp2 hybridized. If C has 2σ bonds then it is sp hybridized.

62. Option (i) i.e.,
Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation of A is the answer as when two or more compounds differ in the position of substituent atom or functional group on the carbon skeleton, they are known as position isomers and this phenomenon is termed as position isomerism. Pent-2-ene and pent-l-ene are position isomers because they differ in the position of the double bond.

61. Option (iv)
i.e., A is not correct, but R is correct is the answer. This is because canonical structures always have more energy than the resonance hybrid. Resonance hybrids are always found to be more stable than any of the canonical structures since the delocalization of electrons lowers the orbitals energy and gives stability.
