An aqueous solution containing 5.0 g of solute in 100 ml is extracted with three 25 ml portion of diethyl ether. what is the total amount of solute that will be extracted by the ether, k = 1.0 ?

First, in this case, we define the K constant as the solubility of the solute in water divided by the solubility of the solute in ether.

K = (X grams of solute / 75 mL of ethyl ether) / (5 g of solute / 100 mL of water)

K = (X / 75) / (5 / 100)

1 = (X / 75) / (5 / 100)

5 / 100 = X / 75

0,05 = X /75

X = 0,05 × 75 = 3.75 g of solute that will be extracted by the ether
