Question
Chapter 7, Problem 2Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Reason behind the removal of the stopper from a separatory funnel when liquid is being drained from it should be explained.
Concept introduction:
For daily laboratory liquid-liquid extraction, a separatory funnel is used. Two immiscible solvents can be readily separated by using the extraction technique.
Generally, one of the phases is organic, while the other is aqueous. The mixture of solvents that need to be extracted is poured from the top while stopcock at the bottom is still attached. Funnel is closed using a stopper,and two of the solvents are shaken together. Afterward funnel is inverted. The stopper is removed, and after the separation of layers, liquids are taken out in separate glassware.

- In Part B of this experiment you added blue food dye to a mixture of water and cyclohexane and found that the food dye dissolved exclusively in one of the two layers (the two layers were an aqueous water layer and a non-aqueous cyclohexane layer). What can you deduce from this observation about the relative strengths of the forces between the food dye and water and cyclohexane? Select one: O a. The relative strengths of the forces between the food dye and water and cyclohexane have no impact on the solubility of the food dye in either the aqueous (water) or non-aqueous (cyclohexane) layers. O b. There is not enough information available from these observations to be able to say anything about the relative strengths of the forces between the food dye and water and cyclohexane O c.
