Assertion (A): A relative volatility of one makes separation by ordinary distillation impossible.
Reason (R): The vapour formed then has the same composition as the liquid it came from.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism: distillation works only because the vapour is enriched, so when the enrichment vanishes no number of stages helps. The limit is thermodynamic rather than one of contacting.
