Correct answer is (a) DCM and (H2O) would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the S.F.

Q. If dichloromethane (DCM) and water $(H X_{2} O)$ are used for differential extraction, which one of the following statements is correct ?

DCM and $(H X_{2} O)$ would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the S.F.

DCM and $(H X_{2} O)$ will be miscible clearly

DCM and $(H X_{2} O)$ would stay as upper and lower layer respectively in the separating funnel (S.F.)

DCM and $(H X_{2} O)$ will make trubid/colloidal mixture

Correct answer is (a) DCM and $(H X_{2} O)$ would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the S.F.

Q. If dichloromethane (DCM) and water (HX2​O) are used for differential extraction, which one of the following statements is correct ?

DCM and (HX2​O) would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the S.F.

DCM and (HX2​O) will be miscible clearly

DCM and (HX2​O) would stay as upper and lower layer respectively in the separating funnel (S.F.)

DCM and (HX2​O) will make trubid/colloidal mixture
