Disadvantages of acid rain:
• Acid rain affects the fresh water ponds and lakes and destroys the aquatic life as some species of fishes are rare and may be extinct
• it can affect the trees particularly those that are high altitude
• It can damage historical monuments and buildings
•soil can be affected and can lead to deaths of good microbes
Advantages of acid rain:
• it makes holes in limestone below ground, which creates caves and places to store groundwater, as well as providing habitat for some species
• But the new study shows that sulfuric in acid may have benefits, limiting global warming by counteracting the natural production of methane gases by microbes in wetland areas.
Of course you should do more studying on acid rain but these are the simple ones
Answer:
The top layer is the Aqueous layer, and the benzoic acid is contained in the non-aqueous layer/oil phase.
Explanation:
A separating funnel is a very important piece of laboratory glassware that is used to separate the components of liquid-liquid mixtures which are immiscible. This technique is used in the extraction of the components of mixtures.
The liquids separate into two phases. The separation is based on the differences in the liquids' densities, where the denser liquid settles below and the lower density liquid stays afloat. Liquids used for this kind of separation are usually different liquids, one is the aqueous layer and the other, a non-aqueous layer.
Partition coefficient or distribution coefficient is defined as the ratio of the concentrations of a compound in two immiscible solvents at equilibrium.
Organic solvents (except halogenated organic compounds) with densities greater than that of water i.e 1g/mL ( usually called the oil phase) settle at the bottom of the aqueous phase.
Benzoic acid. will settle at the bottom layer ( i.e the lower phase).
