Benzoic acid has an acidic proton which can react with strong base like NaOH to form a salt.
While diethyl ether and biphenyl don't have such an equivalent proton and hence they can't react with NaOH.
After first step of extraction in organic layer B diethyl ether and biphenyl remains.

A liquid-liquid extraction is performed according to the schematic below. Which compound(s) should we expect to...
The Separation of Three Organic Compounds by Acid, Base Reactions and Liquid, Liquid Extraction. Okay, so we had solid benzoic acid, ethyl 4- aminobenzoate, and 9-fluorenone all dissolved in diethyl ether. We separated the basic component by adding 3M HCl, we separated the acidic component by adding 3M NaOH. I don't understand what happens here. To isolate the acidic solution, we added 6 M NaOH and used the vacuum to recover the solid. To isolate the basic solution we added...

Experiment 9 Acid-Base Extraction Liquid-liquid extraction utilizes the contrast solubilities of solutes in two immiscible solvents the separation of a mixture. An extracting solvent can be reactive that changes the character of solute. Consider a mixture of organic acid, organic base, and neutral substance, for example, benzoic acid, aniline, biphenyl, nd phenol. They sodium benzoate. Sodium hydroxide changes phenol to sodium phenoxide. Hydrochloric acid changes aniline to...
Draw an extraction flow chart for the Extraction experiment you completed. experiment below Separation of a Benzoic Acid/Biphenyl Mixture by Acid-Base Extraction Prepare the solution to be extracted by dissolving 2.5 g of a 1:1 mixture of benzoic acid/ biphenyl in 25 mL of tert-butyl methyl ether (MTBE) . Using a 125 mL separatory funnel extract the ether solution with a mixture containing 10 mL of distilled water and 15 mL of saturated NaHCO3 . Repeat After removing the aqueous...
A mixture of compounds containing dimethylamine, phenol, ammonia, and acetic acid is separated using liquid-liquid extraction as follows: Step 1: Concentrated HCl is added followed by draining the aqueous layer. Step 2: Dilute NaOH is added to the organic layer followed by draining the aqueous layer. Step 3: Concentrated NaOH is added to the organic layer followed by draining the aqueous layer. Which compound would you expect to be extracted into the aqueous layer after the addition of dilute NaOH,...
Draw the reaction mechanism with chemical structures in the separation of naphthalene and benzoic acid by extraction. 1g of Naphthalene/benzoic acid mixture is dissolved in 15 mL dichloromethane, transferred to a separatory funnel where 10 mL 2.5M NaOH(aq) is added. Organic and Aqueous layers are separated, and 12M HCl(aq) is added to the aqueous layer while cooling, forming a precipitate, which is vacuum filtrated. Don't understand how to draw each chemical structure!
For the portion of the procedure shown below, create a
flow chart for the acid-base extraction at the end of the Grignard
Reaction. Start your flow chart with the crude reaction (see below)
mixture before addition of HCl and continue it until the product is
recovered. Depict the desired organic product, in its correct form
at each step of the procedure.
Crude reaction mixture procedure for reference: To
the flask add Mg turnings (120 mg, 4.94 mmol) to the flask...

In my liquid-liquid extraction experiment, I have to explain where the "rest" of my product is. we were given 1.000 gram to start with of one acid and one neutral compound and separated using the liquid liquid extraction. First we added NaOH into the flask and shook it and observe the separation of the two layers. Then I drained them into separate beakers and added HCL to the aqueous layer containing the acidic component and I evaporated the solvent off...
