Why is it important to open the stopcock on the separatory funnel when extracting from one phase (say, organic phase,) into another phase (say, aqueous phase)?
When we are doing workup for any reaction with water two layers are formed one is organic layer and another one is aqueous layer. So to collect them seperateky we always open stopcock because once one layer will come out we can stop the stopcock immediately so that second layer will remain in seperating funnel. If we will open upside stopper and will try to take layers separately they will always come as a mixture so we to avoid this we are alwyas using stopcock. This stopcock we are also using to release pressure while doing workup.

1. What is the practical advantage of having the organic solvent be denser than water when one is extracting an organic compound from an aqueous solution in a separatory funnel?
9. Why is it important to vent the separatory funnel?
1) during liquid liquid extraction ( LLE) it is normal to use separatory funnel, and two non- miscible phases of solvents , for ex: water as polar phase and ethyl acetate is the organic phase. density of water is 1,0 g/ ml, while density of ethyl acetate is 0.90 g/ ml at 25.0 celsius degrees. which of the two solvents will end up at the buttom of the separatory funnel? 2) ) during liquid liquid extraction ( LLE) it is...
6. You have two layers in a separatory funnel, an aqueous and an organic. If you don't know the densities of each of your aqueous and organic phases, what is one way to determine which is which?
In the acid/base extraction lab, a carboxylic acid was separated from fluorene by extracting the carboxylic acid into the aqueous layer using NaOH solution (a review of this experiment before lab will be helpful). Phenols (aromatic alcohols) can also be separated using this method. In a mixture of a phenol and a non-reacting organic compound, the phenol may be selectively removed from an organic solvent by extracting with a dilute NaOH solution. After separating the organic and aqueous layers, the...
1)When you perform a liquid-liquid extraction using a separatory funnel, which of the following organic solvent is on the bottom of the aqueous phase and which is on top? (write your answer by the solvent name) a) Ethyl acetate b) hexane c) Dichloromethane d) diethyl ether 2) If you are performing a liquid-liquid extraction and you have a mix of a carboxylic acid and a non-acidic compound, which combination of solvents would you use for the separation? a) dichloromethane/HCI b)...
Why do we "vent" multiple times when using a separatory funnel? To speed-up the reaction by decreasing the pressure in the separatory tunnel To allow air into the system to help separate layers. To prevent the fumes from re-entering the liquid state. To release excess gases.
how to get %recovery? here recovered benzoic acid is 0.14 g. Part 1 - ExtracHon of an Acidic Organic Compound 1. Secure a small, clean separatory funnel to a ring stand with a clamp. 2. Label three small flask (25 or 50 mL) with one of the following: "benzoic acid", "ethyl-4- aminobenzoate" and "organic layer". 3. Obtain exactly 10.0 mL of a solution containing benzoic acid and ethyl-4-aminobenzonate in ethyl acetate. 4. Extract the solution containing the two compounds with...

SYNTHESIS OF T-PENTYL CHLORIDE LAB Provide a stoichiometry table for the reaction being performed in this lab. PROCEDURE Preparation oft-Pentyl Chloride In a 125-mL separatory funnel, place 10.0 mL of tert-pentyl alcohol (2-methyl-2- butanol, MW = 88.2, d = 0.805 g/mL) and 25 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid (d 1.18 g/mL). Do not stopper the funnel. Gently swirl the mixture in the separa- tory funnel for about 1 minute. After this period of swirling, stopper the separatory funnel and carefully...
