Question 1

What information do you need in order to calculate the
a) mass fractions of i in various phases of a system in equilibrium?
b) equilibrium concentrations of i in various phases of a system?

In which situation does a change in the partition constant, K i 12 , by a factor 10 have little influence on
- the resulting equilibrium concentrations of i in phase 1 or 2 of a two phase system.
- the resulting mass distribution of i in phase 1 or 2 of a two phase system.

Answer: See Box 3 in the Script.
