700 mg of Antimony (Sb) was dissolved in 100 mL of HCl, an equal volume of isopropyl ether was added, and the system thoroughly shaken. The layers were separated; and the ether, evaporated. The residue was found to contain 685 mg of Antimony. What is the distribution ratio? What is the partition coefficient?

A 36.0 mg sample of an organic compound (molar mass = 84.0 g/mol) is dissolved in 10.0 mL of water. This aqueous solution is extracted with 5.0 mL of hexane. Separation and analysis of the aqueous phase shows that it now contains 12.0 mg of the organic compound. Calculate the partition coefficient for the compound between hexane and water (Kphexane/water). Your answer should reflect the proper number of significant figures.

The partition coefficient of ammonia between water and chloroform is wanted to be determined. The necessary quantities of ingredients are taken into the separation funnel, and the extraction process is applied. At the end of the extraction process, 5 mL portions of each of the water and chloroform phases are titrated with 0.1 M HCI in the presence of methyl orange indicator. If the volumes spent at the turning points are 7.2 and 5.1 mL, respectively, calculate the KSU, KLOROFORM (Dispersion coefficient) value.
Ethyl heptanoate (EH), a food aroma compound, was added to water and allowed to come to equilibrium with a known volume of air and results showed that its partition coefficient, [EHair]/[EHwater] is equal to 1.8 x 10-2. In the same experiment with oil in place of water, its partition coefficient, [EHair]/[EHoi] is found to be lower at 6.0 x 10-6. Account for the difference between the two values.
