Is kerosene and water a substance or a mixture?
It is a mixture of hydrocarbons. Kerosene is a hydrocarbon extracted from petroleum through fractional distillation. It is a mixture of hydrocarbons with different number of carbon atoms(10-14). The boiling point RANGE of kerosene is 170-250 degrees Celsius.
Examples of substances that use the separating funnel?
Separating funnel is a device to separate heavy liquids(e.g water) from lighter liquids (e.g Kerosene)
Why is a solid mixture heavier after separation?
using water for separating
What is separating funel?
A separating funnel is a piece of equipment that is used in laboratories to separate two liquids, such as oil and water. It is mostly made of glass.
Can you separate water and Aniline using separating funnel?
At 20o C aniline's rate of solubility in water is 3.6g/mL. So, aniline mixes with water unlike kerosene which forms a layer above the water. Separating funnel is used to separate two immiscible liquids and cannot separate miscible liquids. Hence, we cannot separate water and aniline using separating funnel.

Freezing point of kerosene water mixture?
oint of kerosene is -22F
How will you separate water kerosene and sand from their mixture?
- Sand is separated by filtration- Kerosene is separated by decantation (or with a special separation funnel) from water

What separating method is used for a mixture of sulfur and water?
filtration
Why is a solid mixture heavier after separation?
using water for separating
Is mixed kerosene and water a substance or a mixture?
Substance is not a sharply differentiated word. Kerosene and water would are a mixture (to the extent that they will mix), but they could also be termed a substance as mixtures can be substances under some uses of the word substance. However mixtures can be differentiated from solutions and compounds -- kerosene and water is not a solution nor a compound.
Did any of the ingredients form a solution with the water how can you tell separating a mixture?
For example by the evaporation of water.
What method of separating mixture can be used to separate water and oil?
the answer is extraction. represent
Which among kerosene and glycerin is miscible in water?
Kerosine forms a layer when mixed with water because it is lighter than water While glycerene does not form a layer
How will you separate mixture containing kerosene in water?
Kerosene is an oil therefore it will not mix well with water. The mixture should separate itself when settled. Then you can spoon or siphon the oil off the top of the water. These substances also freeze and boil at different temperatures so that can also be used as a method to separate them.
