Determination of Boiling Point of Benzene by Distillation Method (CAT#: STEM-PPA-0151-YJL)

Introduction

Benzene (C6H6) is the simplest organic, aromatic hydrocarbon and parent compound of numerous important aromatic compounds. Benzene is a colourless liquid with a characteristic odour and is primarily used in the production of polystyrene. It is highly toxic and is a known carcinogen; exposure to it may cause leukemia. As a result, there are strict controls on benzene emissions.
Benzene is a liquid at standard conditions. However, if heated it becomes a gas, and when cooled it becomes a solid.

Principle

The boiling point of a compound is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a gas under a certain pressure. This is a physical property often used to identify substances or to check the purity of the compound. Boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid exactly equals the pressure exerted on it, causing the liquid to "boil" or change to the gas phase. If the volume of the liquid is large, its boiling point can be determined by distillation.

Applications

Chemical industry

Procedure

1. Install the device
2. Add sample and zeolite
3. Introduce condensate
4. Heat
5. After the distillation is completed, remove the heat source first, and then stop the water flow
