How do you separate benzoic acid and biphenyl and a basic organic solid?

You might be referring to the Fischer-Speier reaction for producing ethyl ethanoate from the other two substances. The other product is water. By contriving to eliminate the water it is possible to favour the equilibrium of this reaction toward more of the desired substance. Please see the link for methods.

first add dilute base to the solution then this will allow you to remove the acid then add dilute acid to remove the base and the remaing is organic solid

Why is benzoic acid is extracted into ether then extracted into an alkali solution prior to being precipitated with strong acid in its preparation with grignard reagent?
When you're attempting to extract benzoic acid from other organic compounds, it is necessary to change its pH by adding a layer of an basic compound such as 1M NaOH so that the benzoic acid then can be separated from the organic layer within a separatory funnel. When in NaOH, the benzoic acid loses a proton and thus becomes its conjugate base (the benzoate ion). The benzoate ion is charged and thus become miscible in the aqueous layer. To extract benzoic acid (ie get it to precipitate out of solution), a strong acid such as HCl must be added to solution. After the extraction, lower the pH of the solution, and recrystalize (use ice after the recrystalization to get benzoic acid crystals to crash out).
Explain the basic organic chemistry?
it started when we identified organic compounds
Is acetaminophen organic or inorganic?
As it contain basic benzene ring system and funtional groups like -OH groups found in Organic chemistry. or simply a carbon compound
What are chemical elements that are in the basic house?
and shoes are organic our medicines, lotions, soaps, detergents are organic, petroleum, natural gas, wood, plastics all are organic.
What is the basic structural unit of the basic organic molecules?
Organic chemistry is the chemistry of compounds of Carbon. Carbon is [almost] unique in its ability to form -C-C-C-C-C- etc. chains. Attach Hydrogens, and the basic structural bio-unit is -CH2- .

What is the equation for the reaction of benzoic acid and zinc oxide?
the oxygen of the zinc will combine with acid group of the acid as the ZnOis basic in nature
