Organic solvents with a density greater than 1.00 g/mL (e.g. dichloromethane) cause the aqueous layer to float to the top, while solvents with a density lower than 1.00 g/mL (e.g.
Solvents with a density exceeding 1.00 g/mL, like dichloromethane, make the aqueous layer rise to the surface, whereas solvents with a density below 1.00 g/mL (like
