Pick out the wrong statement about distillation operation

Flash distillation, differential distillation & steam distillation are all continuous distillation processes
In differential (simple) distillation, the vapour is removed as soon as it is formed without appreciable condensation
In flash (equilibrium) distillation, a definite fraction of liquid is vaporised in such a way that the evolved vapour & residual liquids are in equilibrium with each other
Distillation under vacuum is a substitute for steam distillation

Weep holes provided in the plates of a distillation column

Are normally located near the overflow weir so that any delivery of liquid during operation follows approximately the same path as the overflow fluid
Facilitate draining out liquid from a tray when the unit is not in operation
All of these
Must be large enough (usually 1/4" to 5/8" dia) to prevent plugging but should not deliver excessive amount of fluid during operation
