When conducting the procedure portion of the experiment, after measuring the mixture of cyclohexane and toluene for the simple distillation, it was observed that it took three scoops anhydrous sodium sulfate to dry the sample. It was observed that eh liquid started to boil at 25 degrees Celsius. The first drop of distillate was collected at 77 degrees Celsius. It was observed that the temperature gradually increased. The last drop of the distillate was collected at a temperature of 106 degrees Celsius. The barometric pressure given was 29.93 Hg. For the fractional distillation, two scoops of anhydrous sodium sulfate was needed to dry the sample. For step one of the fractional distillation, .740 grams of copper strips was measured. The cyclohexane
