Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Purification techniques for organic compounds depend on physical properties like boiling point, volatility, and thermal stability.
Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
A. Simple distillation: Used for liquids that are stable at their boiling points and have a large difference in boiling points (typically $>25$ K). (Matches II).
B. Fractional distillation: Used to separate liquids whose boiling points are close to each other, employing a fractionating column. (Matches IV).
C. Steam distillation: Specifically used for substances that are steam volatile and immiscible with water (e.g., aniline). (Matches I).
D. Distillation under reduced pressure (Vacuum Distillation): Used for liquids that have very high boiling points or those that decompose at or below their normal boiling points (e.g., glycerol). (Matches III).
Step 3: Final Answer:
The correct matching is A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III.
What will be the equilibrium constant of the given reaction carried out in a \(5 \,L\) vessel and having equilibrium amounts of \(A_2\) and \(A\) as \(0.5\) mole and \(2 \times 10^{-6}\) mole respectively?
The reaction : \(A_2 \rightleftharpoons 2A\)
