Question

The principle of separation of substances by using a separating funnel is  based on:

  1. Different solubilities
  2. Same solubilities
  3. Same densities
  4. Different densities

hintHint:

Separates two immiscible liquids.

The correct answer is: Different densities


    A separatory funnel, also known as a separation funnel, separating funnel, or colloquially separating funnel, is a piece of laboratory glassware used in liquid-liquid extractions to separate (partition) the components of a mixture into two immiscible solvent phases of different densities. Typically, one of the phases will be aqueous, and the other a lipophilic organic solvent.
    Separatory funnels are used in the lab for liquid-liquid extractions, separating a mixture's components into two solvent phases of different densities.
