Question

1 g of I2 is in 10 mL CHCI3. When 400 mL H2O is added into it, concentration of I2 in CHCI3 falls to 0.80 g. Hence, partition coefficient of I2 in CHCI3 and H2O is

Moderate
Solution

I2 present in 10mLCHCl3=0.8g I2 extracted into 400mLH2O=0.2g

 CI2CHCl3=0.810gmL1

CT2H2O=0.2400gmL1

 CI2CHCl3CI2H2O=0.8100.2400=160
