So that separate layers of oil and water are formed.
Separatory funnel separating funnel oil and water.
They have many different names such as.
A separating funnel can be used to separate the components of the mixture of immiscible liquids.
Separating funnel this technique is used for immiscible liquids those that do not mix together.

A mixture of oil and water is put into a separating funnel and then shaken and then left until it becomes stable again.
A separating funnel is funnel that is used to separate immiscible liquids.
The oil and water form two separate layers with the less dense liquid being on top.
Let it stand undisturbed for some time.
Oil and water are two immiscible liquids and forms two different layers in separating funnel.
As you see we collect the water in the beaker under the separatory funnel.
Later the mixture is placed in a separating funnel or colloquially sep funnel and allowed to stand.
Components will naturally separate over time.
Open the stopcock of the separating funnel and pour out the lower layer of water carefully.
Then we open the tap of the separatory funnel to let the water out.
Liquids that do not mix with each other are said to be immiscible.
When this is done the bottom of the separating funnel is opened and the water flows out leaving only the oil.
Adter finishing the water inside the separatory.
The liquid with higher density in this case water goes to the bottom of the separating funnel because it is heavier than oil.
Separation funnel separating funnel or even just a sep.
A separating funnel is used in the process.
