Simple distillation is used when the two liquids differ widely in boiling point; fractional distillation is reserved for liquids with close boiling points.

Distillation separates liquids based on differences in boiling point:

  • Simple distillation separates two miscible liquids whose boiling points differ widely (usually by more than about 25 K).
  • Fractional distillation is used when boiling points are close, using a fractionating column for repeated vaporisation-condensation cycles. …
