What are the difference between the miscible and immiscible?
Miscible substances can dissolve completely in each other in all proportions, forming a homogeneous mixture. Immiscible substances cannot mix in all proportions and form separate layers when mixed together.
Is oil and water miscible?
No, oil and water are immiscible, which means they do not mix together. This is due to the difference in polarity between the two substances. Oil is nonpolar, while water is polar, causing them to repel each other.
Why would you separate a homogeneous mixture of two miscible liquids in this way but not a mixture of two immiscible liquids?
In the case of a homogeneous mixture of two miscible liquids, their separation requires a method that can differentiate between the two substances based on their unique properties, such as boiling points in distillation. However, for a mixture of two immiscible liquids, their distinct separation is easier due to their natural tendency to separate into distinct layers based on density differences.
What is immiscible?
Immiscible liquids do not mix with each other and don't form homogeneous mixtures. An example of this type of relationship is between water and oil (they separate)
What is the purpose of the vial of immiscible liquid in the experiment?
The purpose of the vial of immiscible liquid in the experiment is to create a clear boundary between two liquids that do not mix, allowing for the observation of how substances interact at their interface.
