Teachers use the 500 ml funnel to demonstrate liquid layering to a whole class, for instance oil floating on coloured water, and to prepare a larger quantity of an extract before dividing it among student groups. In college practicals it handles washing steps, where an organic layer is shaken with water or a dilute solution several times and the watery layer is drained away each time.
Leave plenty of space above the liquids so there is room to shake, hold the stopper and the tap firmly with both hands, and vent often. A full funnel is heavy, so rest it in a ring on a sturdy retort stand rather than a light clamp, and place the receiving flask directly below the tap. It is a practical larger-volume choice of chemistry lab glassware for colleges and schools in India.
