In doing so, you manipulated and exploited the acid-base chemistry of one or more of the compounds in your mixture to facilitate their separation into different phases. The key to understanding how liquid- liquid extractions work is by knowing which layer a compound is in, and in what protonation state. The following liquid-liquid extraction is different from the one you performed in Experiment 4, but it uses the same type of logic. Your task is to show how to separate apart Compound A and Compound B. . Complete the following flowchart of a liquid-liquid extraction.
