Chloroform (CHCl3), although it is polar, cannot form hydrogen bonds with water and thus the interactions between chloroform and water are too weak to be miscible. In addition, chloroform is significantly heavier than water and will form a bottom layer if mixed.

Why is chloroform at the bottom during extraction process with benzoic acid and sodium chloride mixture in water?
Because it is immiscible and has a greater density.
Are ink and water immiscible?
no
I need a list of miscible and immiscible liquids.?
immiscible oil and water copper and cobalt
What is Double strength chloroform water?
the concentrated chloroform water is called double strength chloroform water it is prepared by adding 5ml conc.chloroform to the 100 ml of water

Can wax be dissovled in water?
No, wax and water are immiscible.

water is polar and the cyclohexane is not
Is water and tolueneis miscible or immiscible?
Immiscible, of course. Greasy stuff like toluene is not water soluble to any significant degree.
How do you separate water from a mixture of chloroform and water?
Distillation, because chloroform and water have different boiling points.
Can water mix with oil?
No, they are immiscible. I want to improve the answer: Though oil and water are immiscible normally but they can be made immiscible by use of suitable surfactants or better say emulsifying agents resulting in the formation of mixture of oil and water called as emulsion.
Are icecubes immiscible?
Anything immiscible is incapable of being blended or mixed together, such liquids that are shaken, normally settle into layers. On the assumption that ice cubes are formed by freezing water, they are not immiscible when frozen, but immiscible when defrosted
What are immiscible substances?
Immiscible means incapable of mixing, but you'd (you might) have to ask further incase there is a special solution called 'immiscible solution' of which its inability to mix is only one aspect of it.
