You are given a solution of benzoic acid, anthracene, and ethyl 4-aminobenzoate in methylene chloride. If you perform an extraction with acidic aqueous solution, the majority of what compounds will remain in the organic layer?

Benzoic acid, anthracene

Explanation:

If you have a compound with an aqueous layer and organic layer, they can be distinguished by adding distilled water. The aqueous layer increases in size.

Organic products are soluble in organic solvent (organic layer). Benzoic acid, anthracene are both acidic, therefore if you perform an extraction with acidic aqueous solution both would dissolve in the methylene chloride thereby remaining in the organic layer.

idk what the question is about

so what is the problem with your lab report and whats the subject of the lab report? i will you
