Answer 2

Answer:

A separatory funnel, also known as a separation funnel, separating funnel, or colloquially sep 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.

Separating funnel is used to separate the mixture of two immiscible liquids. Kerosene oil and water do not mix with each other and form two separate layers. ... The heavier liquid (water) forms the lower layer whereas the lighter liquid forms the upper layer (kerosene). Thus, the water is first collected in the beaker.
