Which chemicals will be a result of cocoa powder distillation?
Accepted Answer
Distillation is a separation technique used to purify liquids based on their boiling points. Cocoa powder is a complex mixture of compounds, including fats, sugars, proteins, and pigments. Applying distillation to cocoa powder would not result in distinct chemicals as it's not a homogeneous liquid. Instead, the process would likely yield a complex mixture of volatile compounds, including water, alcohols, and aromatic compounds, leaving behind the non-volatile components of cocoa powder.
