Ans. (i)Distillation Under Reduced Pressure is used for purifying or separating thermally unstable liquid compounds.

Uses :

  • In Petroleum Refining
  • in food processing

(ii) For testing of sulphur present in the organic compound, the Lassaigne’s extract is acidified with acetic acid (CH3COOH) and not sulphuric acid because lead acetate is soluble and does not interfere with the test. If sulphuric acid (H2SO4 ) is used, lead acetate will react with H2SO4 itself to form white ppt. PbSO4.
