Answer #1

If the stopper of separating funnel is closed, then you will not be able to drain the solution properly.

If the stopper is not removed, it generates vacuum above the liquid which results in less rate of draining and finally stops. Later, vacuum will suck air resulting in mixing up of two layers again.
