Because of this, a mixture of these two liquids is hard to separate by fractional distillation. Why is it hard to separate a mixture of benzene and cyclohexane by fractional distillation?
- AThey are both flammable.
- BThey are both liquids.
- CThey have very similar boiling points.
- DThey mix with each other completely.
