Question

Variation in volume of extraction solvent: compound X is dissolved in 20.0 mL of solvent B.

Assuming a partition coefficient of

PX,AB of 5.0, calculate the percentage of X that remains in

solvent B if it is extracted the following volumes of solvent A:

1.0 mL

10.0 mL

20.0 mL

100.0 mL

Expert Solution

Given Data:

$\cdot Volume of Solvent (V_{B}) = 20.0 mL \cdot Partition coefficient (P_{X \cdot AB}) = 5.0 \cdot Volumes of Solvent A (V_{A}) are = \cdot 1.0 mL \cdot 10.0 mL \cdot 20.0 mL \cdot 100.0 mL We need to calculate the percentage of " X " that remains in solvent B$
