Q3. The fragrance of flowers is due to the presence of some steam volatile organic compounds called essential oils. These are
generally insoluble in water at room temperature but are miscible with water vapour in vapour phase. A suitable method for
the extraction of these oils from the flowers is:

  1. Distillation.
  2. Crystallisation.
  3. Distillation under reduced pressure.
  4. Steam distillation.
Click To View The Answer

Ans: 4. Steam distillation.

Q8. Which of the following method is used to purify liquids having very high boiling points and those which decompose at or
below their boiling points?

  1. Simple distillation.
  2. Fractional distillation.
  3. Distillation under reduced pressure.
  4. None of the above.
Click To View The Answer

Ans: 3. Distillation under reduced pressure.

Explanation:
Distillation under reduced pressure method is used to purify liquids having very high boiling points and those, which decompose at or below their
boiling points. Such liquids are made to boil at a temperature lower than their normal boiling points by reducing the pressure on their surface. A
liquid boils at a temperature at which its vapour pressure is equal to the external pressure. The pressure is reduced with the help of a water pump
or vacuum pump.

Q25. During hearing of a court case, the judge suspected that some changes in the documents had been carried out. He asked the
forensic department to check the ink used at two different places. According to you which technique can give the best
results?

Click To View The Answer

Ans: 4. Thin layer chromatography.

Explanation:
Thin layer Chomatography (TLC): itis a method for analyzing mixtures by separating the components of the mixture. TLC can be used to determune
the number of components in the mixture, the identity of compounds and the purity of compounds by observing the apperance of a product or
the disppearance of areactant. it can also be used to monitor the progress of a reaction. TLC is a sensitive technique – microgram (0.000001)g
quantities can be analyzwd by TLC,
