Cyclohexene-Toluene Lab Report

In this experiment, in both distillation techniques it was observed the separation of the cyclohexene-toluene as the mixture was heated. The vaporization of the mixture was visible when the temperature was increasing. Another observation shows that the vapor was condensed and the it was turned back into liquid form and collected at the Hickman still head. Others qualitative observations demonstrate that the bottom round flask was extremely hot as it became in contact with the hot bath sand. For the simple distillation however, quantitative observations demonstrate that the temperature was increasing from 80C° to 103C ° but decreased to 102C ° as the amount of the cyclohexene-toluene was relatively low at the bottom flask. For the fractional
