To separate multicomponent mixtures as a function of pH of solution.

SAFETY ALERT

Wear safety glasses or goggles and suitable protective gloves while performing the experiments.
Do not allow any of the chemicals used in this experiment to come in contact with your skin. If they do, immediately wash the affected areas with soap and water.
Diethyl ether is extremely volatile and flammable. Be certain there are no flames in your vicinity when using it for extraction and when removing it from the “Neutral Compound.”
Use caution in handling wet glassware, because it can easily slip out of your grasp.
When extracting a solution, vent the separatory funnel or vial often to avoid a buildup of pressure.

- Handle glassware used for separation carefully to avoid breaking

- Be sure to discard the waste safely in the respective bins.

- Reduce build-up of pressure by using a separating funnel.
