Yes, hexane and benzene are miscible (that is, when combined they mix together to form one layer) because they are both nonpolar (that is, because "like dissolves like" the liquid with the greater volume will become the solvent and dissolve the solute).

How do you separate kerosene from benzene?

Kerosene and benzene can be separated by fractional distillation. Since benzene has a lower boiling point than kerosene, the mixture can be heated to vaporize the benzene, which is then collected as a separate fraction.


Is kerosene miscible with carbon tetrachloride?

No, kerosene is not miscible with carbon tetrachloride. Miscibility of liquids depends on their relative polarities and molecular structures. Kerosene is a nonpolar solvent, while carbon tetrachloride is a polar solvent, which makes them immiscible.


Is chloroform miscible with benzene?

Yes they are mixing together. but they are not reacting.


Are oil and bezene miscible?

Yes Oil and benzene are miscible, both are hydrophobics and lypophylics.


Are alcohol and kerosene miscible?

yes


Which among kerosene and glycerin is miscible in water?

Glycerin is miscible in water, while kerosene is not. Glycerin is a polar molecule with hydrogen bonding capabilities, allowing it to mix well with water. Kerosene is non-polar and hydrophobic, so it does not mix with water.


Are methylene chloride and benzene miscible or immiscible?

Methylene chloride and benzene are immiscible in each other. They have different chemical properties that prevent them from forming a homogeneous mixture when combined.


What will form a solution with chloroform?

Chloroform is miscible with ethanol, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, diethyil ether etc.


Why is benzene- water unsuitable as a mixed solvent?

Benzene is not miscible in water, leading to poor solvent interaction between the two compounds. This results in incomplete dissolution of solutes in the mixture. Additionally, benzene is considered toxic, making it undesirable for use in solvent mixtures.


When performing your experiment you add your first drop of oleic acid and benzene solution and a lens forms immediately What is wrong with your setup and how can it be corrected?

The immediate lens formation indicates that the oleic acid and benzene solution is not miscible. To correct this, you can try using a more suitable solvent for oleic acid that is miscible with benzene, such as ethanol or acetone. Alternatively, you can adjust the concentration of the solutions to promote mixing.


What will result when benzene is mixed with water?

Benzene is sparingly soluble in water due to the hydrophobic nature of its aromatic structure. It will form separate layers in the mixture, with benzene floating on top of the water. Benzene is considered immiscible with water.


Are acetone and ethanol miscible?

No, they are miscible. Acetone dissolves both polar compounds and nonpolar comounds well. That's why acetone is used to wash chemicals off.
