Answer:
91.224 mg of caffeine will be extracted from a 60 mL cup of Turkish coffee (100 mg caffeine) by 40 mL of methylene chloride (CH2Cl2)
Explanation:
The distribution co-efficient of Caffeine for methylene chloride (CH2Cl2)/water (H2O) is 8.4
Volume of Turkish coffee = 60 mL
Volume of methylene chloride (CH2Cl2) = 40 ml
Distribution coefficient is represented by K
