Question
How will you separate water from mustard oil ?
Advertisements
Solution
We will separate water from mustard oil by using a separating funnel. Due to the difference in the densities of the two liquids, mustard oil, being lighter than water, floats over it and forms the upper layer, whereas water forms the lower layer. On opening the stop-cock, the lower layer of water comes out first and is collected in a beaker. Mustard oil is left behind in the separating funnel.
