Separatory Funnel: practical apparatus
What Separatory Funnel Is Used For
Separatory Funnel is practical apparatus for supporting filtration and separation of insoluble solids. In GCSE or introductory practical science, the annotated diagram helps connect the apparatus to the method, measurement, or observation being tested.
How To Use It In An Exam Answer
Use the marker labels to name the apparatus first, then say why it is suitable. A strong answer links separatory funnel to supporting filtration and separation of insoluble solids, rather than only saying that it is used in a lab.

Common Trap
Do not describe apparatus by appearance only. Marks usually come from explaining its function in the practical method.
