The question appears to have a slight error, as Trichlorofluoromethane is a synthetic compound and not obtained from air. Assuming the question intends to ask about how Nitrogen is obtained from air on a large scale, the process is fractional distillation of liquid air. Here's the description of the process: a) Describe the process by which Nitrogen is obtained from air on a large scale: 1. Filtration: Air is first filtered to remove dust particles. 2. Cooling and Compression: The filtered air is then compressed and cooled to remove water vapor (which condenses) and carbon dioxide (which solidifies). 3. Liquefaction: The remaining air, primarily nitrogen and oxygen, is further cooled to very low temperatures (around -200^) until it liquefies. This is often achieved through repeated compression and expansion cycles. 4. Fractional Distillation: The liquid air is then fed into a fractionating column. As the liquid air slowly warms up, the components separate based on their different boiling points. Nitrogen, with a boiling point of -196^, boils off first and is collected as a gas at the top of the column. Oxygen (boiling point -183^) and Argon (boiling point -186^) are collected separately at different levels. 3 done, 2 left today. You're making progress.
