Question

You have 100 mL of a solution of benzoic acid in water; the amount of benzoic acid in the solution is estimated to be about 0.30 g. The distribution coefficient of benzoic acid in diethyl ether and water is approximately 10. Calculate the amount of acid that would be left in the water solution after four 20-mL extractions with ether.

    Answer:

    0.00370 g

    Explanation:

    From the given information:

    To determine the amount of acid remaining using the formula:\dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{(initial \ mass \ of \ solute )_{water}} = (\dfrac{v_2}{v_1+v_2\times k_d})^n

    where;

    v_1 = volume of organic solvent = 20-mL

    n = numbers of extractions = 4

    v_2 = actual volume of water = 100-mL

    k_d = distribution coefficient = 10

    ∴

    \dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +20 \ ml \times 10})^4

    \dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{100 \ ml}{100 \ ml +200 \ ml})^4

    \dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = (\dfrac{1}{3})^4

    \dfrac{(final \ mass \ of \ solute)_{water}}{0.30 \ g} = 0.012345

    Thus, the final amount of acid left in the water = 0.012345 * 0.30

    = 0.00370 g
