Separation of the constituents of air
Separation of The Constituents of Air
The invisible gaseous substance surrounding the earth, a mixture mainly of oxygen and nitrogen. Air is a homogeneous mixture and can be separated into its components by fractional distillation. For this purpose, the air is compressed by increasing the pressure and cooled to a very low temperature. Thus, liquid air is obtained. This liquid air is allowed to warm up slowly in a fractional distillation column, where gases get separated at different heights depending upon the boiling points.
The constituents of air can be separated by fractional distillation method. You know that air is a mixture consisting mainly of nitrogen and oxygen. Carbon dioxide and other gases are also present in trace amounts. To separate the components, air is gradually cooled.
Water vapour present in air condenses to water. When the temperature reaches 0°C, water freezes to ice. On further cooling, carbon dioxide separates as dry ice at about —78°C. Air is cooled further under pressure to about —200°C. At this temperature air gets liquefied. This liquid air contains mainly nitrogen and oxygen. It is now heated. Nitrogen (boiling point —196°C) is converted into vapour (gas) and is collected. Oxygen, whose boiling point is —183°C, is left behind. It is collected separately.

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.

10thMy experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.

8thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
