The hypothesis can’t be a opinion or something that has nothing to do with your work
For example;if you want to see if your toilet paper is sturdy and you say “i think it will cause the commercial says it does” (wrong) answer would have to be “i infer that the toilet paper will be sturdy because it looks more resistant than other paper I’ve seen”
The dichloromethane (DCM) has less density than water and also the polarity of water is much more than DCM. So the mixture of water and dichloromethane will always be a heterogeneous mixture. In the mixture dichloromethane will be always up of the water layer. The volume of the separatory funnel which contains the mixture of DCM and water must have to be more than the total volume of the liquids thus the volume of the funnel will be more than (50+50) = 100mL.
The caution have to consider during the separation are-
1. The separatory funnel have to shake well with lid and have to settle down for some times until the two liquid separated.
2. The lid should be open very slowly as the vapor pressure of DCM is more and it will float on the water.
3. After this the stopcock should be opened and slowly the water will come out first followed by DCM.
Answer:
Explanation:
The half-life of Na-24 (15 h) is the time it takes for half of it to decay.
After one half-life, half (50 %) of the original amount will remain.
After a second half-life, half of that amount (25 %) will remain, and so on.
We can construct a table as follows:
No. of Fraction Mass
<u>half-lives t/da Remaining Remaining/g
</u>
0 0 1 18
1 15 ½ 9.0
2 30 ¼ 4.5
3 45 ⅛ 2.2
4 60 ⅟₁₆ 1.1
5 75 ⅟₃₂ 0.56
6 90 ⅟₆₄ 0.28
We see that 
remain after five half-lives (75 h).
