Expert Solution

Introduction

“Since there are multiple sub-parts in this question and it is not mentioned that which one has to be solved so I am solving only the first three sub-parts. Please repost the other sub-parts if you need answers for them too.

Separating funnel is ude to separate a mixture of components of different densities.

Most commonly it is used for the separation of organic and aqeous layers.

Those compounds which are more denser will be at the bottom phase.
