Question

In the process of vacuum distillation the pressure of _______ above the solvent is lowered.

  1. Filtrate
  2.   Column
  3. Precipitate  
  4.   Solute  

hintHint:

Vacuum distillation is distillation performed under reduced pressure.

The correct answer is:  
Column


    Vacuum distillation is distillation performed under reduced pressure, which allows the purification of compounds not readily distilled at ambient pressures or simply to save time or energy. This technique separates compounds based on differences in their boiling points. This technique is used when the boiling point of the desired compound is difficult to achieve or will cause the compound to decompose.
    In the process of vacuum distillation the pressure of solute above the solvent is lowered.
