5 out of 6 Mock form two chemistry examination Dodoma region

 iii. Explanation
When these liquids kept in separating funnel and mix they make a distinct layer between them,
whereas water stays down and cooking oil floats over water because the density of oil is less
than that of water and the two layers formed are different in appearance, during separation
the layer of water will be collected first followed by the layer of cooking oil, this method is
known as layer separation. (3 marks)
