Answer:
Aqueous layer (1 M HCI)
Explanation:
First of us I want to remind you of the cliché in chemistry that like dissolves like. In solvent extraction, a mixture is dissolved in a system consisting of two immiscible solvents. One layer is organic while the other layer is aqueous.
Polar substances partition in the aqueous layer while nonpolar substances partition in the organic layer.
Since Copper sulfate is ionic, we will find it in the aqueous layer according to the old chemistry cliche.
Balanced chemical reaction: 2K(s) + 2H₂O(l) → 2KOH(aq) + H₂(g).
KOH is inorganic compound p<span>otassium hydroxide, a strong base.
H</span>₂ is hydrogen gas.
In balanced chemical reaction number of atoms on both side of chemical reaction must be same. There are two potassium atoms, four hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms on both side of reaction.
