Defined as a phenomenon of liberation of electron from the surface that is stimulated by temperature elevation, radiation, or by strong electric field.
1,2-dichloroethane of density 1.23 g/ml would settle down an aqueous solution.
<h3>Density:</h3>
Knowing whether the aqueous layer is above or below the organic layer in the separatory funnel is crucial since it determines which layer is ultimately kept and discarded. Because immiscible solvents have different densities, they will stack on top of one another. The less-dense solution will rest on top, and the more dense one will rest at the bottom.
Due to their low density of less than 1 g/mL, the majority of non-halogenated organic solvents will float on top of an aqueous solution (if they are immiscible). One significant exception is that halogenated solvents will sink below aqueous solutions because they are denser than water (having densities greater than 1 g/mL). Except for halogenated solvents like dichloromethane, which are usually on the bottom, most organic solvents, such as diethyl ether, are on top.
