(a)
Interpretation:
The approximate temperature at which the steam distillation occurs should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Boiling occurs when the total vapor pressure of two immiscible liquids equals to atmospheric pressure (1 atm). So by steam distillation, organic compounds which are insoluble in water can be extracted in low temperature without decomposition.
(b)
Interpretation:
Why the proportions of the two liquids condensed from the vapor is independent of the composition of the boiling mixture, as long as both liquids are present in the boiling mixture should be explained.
Concept introduction:
A liquid boils when vapor pressure of the liquid equals to external pressure. Vapor pressure of a liquid at a certain temperature depends on its enthalpy of vaporization, when the enthalpy of vaporization is low; vapor pressure of the liquid at a certain temperature is high, because it needs less energy to escape into vapor phase.
(c)
Interpretation:
Which of the two liquids, water or Cinnamaldehyde, condenses in the greater quantity by mass should be explained.
Concept introduction:
Boiling point depends on intermolecular forces. Higher the intermolecular forces, higher the boiling point. Hence, a liquid with higher boiling point will have a lower vapor pressure at certain temperature compared to a liquid with lower boiling point. However liquid starts to boil when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals to external pressure.

Zinc (Zn) granules react slowly with dilute hydrochloric acid (HCI), but much faster if the acid is concentrated. Zn(s) 2HCI(aq)ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) Zinc + Hydrochloric Acid Zinc Chloride + Hydrogen What causes the reaction to proceed faster with concentrated acid? The concentrated hydrochloric acid causes more hydrogen gas to be produced. The pressure of hydrogen gas molecules increases as concentration increases. The concentrated hydrochloric acid molecules move faster than in dilute acid. There are more collisions between the zinc and concentrated hydrochloric acid.
