26. a) Y is the condenser*. Its function is to cool the hot vapor, causing it to condense back into liquid. X is a thermometer*. Its function is to measure the temperature of the vapor that is distilling. The final answer is Y: Condenser, X: Thermometer b) The method illustrated is distillation, which is used to separate miscible liquids with different boiling points. i. Ethanol and water ii. Methanol and water The final answer is i. Ethanol and water, ii. Methanol and water c) The property that makes it possible to separate the mixture using distillation is the difference in their boiling points. The final answer is Difference in boiling points
