In distillation, overhead product contains ______________________?
Correct answer: C. Any number of components
- A. Only one component
- B. Two components
- C. Any number of components
- D. Only saturated liquid
Explanation
A distillation overhead is generally a mixture whose composition depends on volatility and operating conditions; it is not restricted to one or two components. Therefore, multicomponent distillation can produce an overhead containing any number of components.
