Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the heat applied to a reflux apparatus is sufficient or not should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Many organic reactions are not spontaneous and require heat for the initiation of the chemical reaction. On the other hand, exothermic organic reactions needed the removal of the heat produced in the reaction. The removal of the heat is generally produced in the reaction is done by the use of a cooling bath.

The reactions where heat is applied in a closed container there are chances of explosion. The condenser is an apparatus that is used in the laboratory to cool the heated liquid.
