An aqueous solution, initially 2.50 × 10-2 M in iodine (I,), is shaken with an equal volume of an immiscible organic solvent, CS2. The iodine distributes itself between the aqueous and CS, layers, and when equilibrium is reached at 25°C, the concentration of I2 in the aqueous layer is 4.16 × 10-5 M. Calculate the partition coefficient K at 25°C for the reaction I(aq) 2 L(CS2)
