Organic iodides, such as iodoform (CHI3) or triiodomethane, can produce a yellow-orange color in a hexane layer during the iodoform test. This color change indicates the presence of a methyl ketone in the solution.
In a separatory funnel extraction with water and hexane, the hexane layer is the organic layer that is less dense than water and will be on top. Hexane is a nonpolar solvent, so it will preferentially extract nonpolar compounds from the mixture.

No, hexane does not react with bromine in the absence of ultraviolet light or intense heating. Bromine typically requires the presence of such conditions to undergo a reaction with alkanes like hexane.

The alkyl halide layer switches from the top layer to the bottom layer during extraction with water because alkyl halides are less soluble in water compared to organic solvents. When water is added, the alkyl halide molecules preferentially partition into the water layer, causing them to move from the organic layer (usually on top) to the aqueous layer (usually at the bottom).

The separation occurs because hexane is nonpolar and water is polar, leading to immiscibility. Hexane molecules are attracted to each other and repelled by water molecules, causing them to form a separate layer. This phenomenon is due to differences in intermolecular forces between the two solvents.
Yellow cake mix already has yellow food coloring in it, which will effect any colors added. This should be no problem when adding green coloring, but the red will be tinted slightly orange. You might want to start with a white cake mix, which would give truer colors when dyed.
Yes. If you put water and hexane in a beaker or a container together, the hexane will be on top of the water. One way to see this is to dye the water. They do not mix because water is polar and the hexane cannot dissolve in it. It is on top because, guess why? It is less dense than water. That is why anything floats on water... it is less dense! Hope that answers your question!

Hexane is a nonpolar solvent that helps extract nonpolar compounds, such as halogens, from an aqueous solution. By adding hexane, the halogens will preferentially dissolve in the nonpolar layer, allowing for easier separation and purification of the halogens from the aqueous solution.
The moon can appear yellow when it is near the horizon because its light has to pass through a thicker layer of Earth's atmosphere, which scatters shorter wavelengths like blue and green light and allows longer wavelengths like yellow, orange, and red light to pass through, giving the moon a yellowish hue.
