Question

Write true or false. Correct the false statement.

Miscible liquids are separated by using a separating funnel.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• Those liquids which mix together in all proportions and form a single layer (when put in a container) are called miscible liquids.
• A separating funnel can be used to separate two immiscible liquids.
• Those liquids which do not mix with each other and form separate layers (when put in a container),
  are called immiscible liquids.
• A separating funnel is a specific sort of funnel that contains a stop-cock (or tap) in its stem that allows or stops the flow of liquid from it. The difference in densities between two immiscible liquids determines the separation by a separating funnel.

Hence, the given statement is False.

Correct statement - Immiscible liquids are separated by using a separating funnel.
