yes i have that information, I am having trouble understanding how to incorporate it into the expression for the fraction of solute in each of the layers of liquid at equilibrium. Essentially i want to know where this equation comes from. Any ideas/ answers would be greatly appreciated :biggrin:

Derive the following equation for the fraction of a solute in layer 1 of the 2 layers formed by two immiscible liquids; Fraction of solute in layer 1 = (KD*V1)/((KD*V1)+V2) where KD=Distribution coefficient for the solute between chemical in V1 and chemical in V2 V1=Volume of liquid...
