$DCM$ and $H_2O$ would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the $S.F$.

(A) The density of dichloromethane $(DCM)$ is approximately $1.33 \ g/cm^3$,which is greater than the density of water $(H_2O)$,which is $1.00 \ g/cm^3$. Because $DCM$ is denser than water,it will form the lower layer,and water will form the upper layer in a separating funnel $(S.F)$.

$DCM$ and $H_2O$ would stay as lower and upper layer respectively in the $S.F$.
B
$DCM$ and $H_2O$ will make turbid/colloidal mixture.
C
$DCM$ and $H_2O$ would stay as upper and lower layer respectively in the separating funnel $(S.F)$.
