during the steam distillation process, the boiling point of the mixture is the same as the boiling point of pure eugenol.
true
false

Explanation:

Steam distillation is a technique used to separate substances that are immiscible with water. In steam distillation, the boiling point of the mixture is lower than the boiling point of either component (water or the organic compound like eugenol). This is because the total vapor pressure of the mixture (water vapor pressure + eugenol vapor pressure) reaches atmospheric pressure at a lower temperature than the boiling point of pure eugenol (which has a relatively high boiling point).

Answer:

False
