a. CH3COCH b. CH3COOH c. CH2=CH2 d. CH30CH2CH 3. In the separatory funnel, the aqueous layer settles to the bottom of the ether layer because: a. the aqueous layer is hydrophobic b. the aqueouslayer is more dense c. the aqueous layer is colder d. the aqueous layer has a greater surface area 4. In the separation, the neutral compound will settle into the layer and the carboxylic compound will setter into the layer
