Answer:

water

Explanation:

In chemistry, an important principle that guides the solubility of a solute in a solvent is the principle of like dissolves like.

A polar solvent will dissolve a polar solute and a non-polar solvent will dissolve a non polar solute.

Ethyl acetate is a polar solute. It will have to dissolve in water which is a polar solvent. Hence, ethyl acetate will dissolve in the water layer.

Which of the species below can act as a lewis base? bf3 nf3 oh− alcl3?
IRINA_888 [86]
Among BF₃, NF₃, OH⁻ and ALCl₃ both NF₃ and OH⁻ acts as a lewis base.

Explaination:
According to lewis theory of acid and base, base is a specie which has either lone pair of electrons or is negatively charged. So, in the given compounds Nitrogen trifluoride contain lone pair of electron on nitrogen and Hydroxide contains a negative charge on oxygen. And botha are capable to donate these electrons to a lewis acid (electrophiles).
