Title: Separation of a Three Components Mixture by Extraction

Objective:
The objective of this experiment is to separate a three components mixture using the technique of liquid-liquid extraction.

Introduction:
Liquid-liquid extraction is a technique used to separate components of a mixture based on their solubility in two immiscible liquids. In this experiment, we will be separating a mixture of three components using a solvent extraction process. The three components in the mixture are A, B, and C, with different solubilities in the two immiscible solvents, solvent 1 and solvent 2.

Materials and Methods:
1. Prepare a mixture of components A, B, and C in a beaker.
2. Add solvent 1 to the mixture and stir well to dissolve the components.
3. Transfer the mixture to a separatory funnel and add solvent 2.
4. Shake the separatory funnel vigorously to allow the components to partition between the two solvents.
5. Allow the layers to separate and carefully drain the lower layer (solvent 1) into a clean beaker.
6. Repeat the extraction process with fresh solvent 2.
7. Combine the extracted layers and evaporate the solvents to obtain the separated components.

Results:
After the extraction process, components A, B, and C were successfully separated into the two solvent layers. Component A was found to be more soluble in solvent 1, while components B and C were more soluble in solvent 2. The final separated components were obtained by evaporating the solvents.

Conclusion:
Liquid-liquid extraction is an effective technique for separating components of a mixture based on their solubility in different solvents. In this experiment, we successfully separated a three components mixture using solvent extraction. This technique can be applied to various mixtures in analytical chemistry and organic synthesis.
