Hi, I'm having trouble with answering these organic chemistrylab questions. Please give full answers in your own words. Thanksin advance
1. Which of the following solvents: acetone, diethly ether,dichloromethane, pentane, THF, form upper layers or lower layersand which are miscible or immiscible with water during anextraction?
2. What is the consequence of only cooling the recrystallizationsolution to room temperature instead of 0 degrees celsius.
3. What is the consequence of only cooling the recrysyallizationsolution to quickly?
4. A mixture of carboxylic acid and a phenol can often beseperated by extracting with aqueous sodium bicarbonate and asuitable organic solvent. What difference in cehmical properties ofthe carboxylic acid and the phenol make this seperationpossible?
5. What is the practical advatnage of using dichloromethane overdiethly ether for extracting organic compounds from an aqueoussolution using a seperatory funnel? What are the advantages anddisadvantages of using diethly ether as an extraction solvent?
