Question

James mistakenly mixed hexane with dichloromethane and water. If the density of hexane is 661 Kg/m3, the density of dichloromethane is 1322 kg/m3, and the density ofwater is 1000 Kg/m3, what is the best technique for separating the mixtures

The best technique for separating the mixtures in this case would be "separating funnel." The reason for this choice is that the three substances, hexane, dichloromethane, and water, have different densities, allowing for a separation by density differences using a separating funnel.
