Organic layers are part of the soil.
No, the organic layer is not always on top of the aqueous layer. The layering depends on the relative densities of the organic and aqueous phases. The less dense layer will be on top.
The layer that contains the most organic material in the diagram is the top layer, known as the O horizon or organic horizon. This layer is made up of decomposing organic matter such as leaf litter and other plant debris.
Organic compounds are affecting the ozone layer. It is because they deplete ozone.
An organic layer refers to a layer of organic material, such as decaying plant matter or humus, that accumulates on the surface of soil or sediment. This layer is important for nutrient cycling, soil fertility, and supporting diverse plant and microbial life in ecosystems.
Because the density of water more than the density of organic compounds

The density of the aqueous layer is higher.
Caffeine is more miscible in the organic layer (dichloromethane) than in the aqueous layer. This is because caffeine is a non-polar compound and thus dissolves better in organic solvents than in water, which is a polar solvent.
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 second layer of organic soil is typically referred to as the topsoil. Topsoil contains a mix of organic matter, minerals, and nutrients that support plant growth. It is the most fertile layer of soil and is vital for healthy plant development.
