This question has two parts. Please answer both parts and explain thoroughly how you were able to get the answer. Benzoic acid is almost 12 times more soluble in dichloromethane than in water at room temperature (the distribution coefficient (K) is 11.7). a) Approximately how many grams of benzoic acid would be recovered in the organic layer if 10.0g of benzoic acid dissolved in 100 mL of water was extracted with 100 mL of dichloromethane? Show calculations. b) Approximately how many grams of benzoic acid would be recovered if the water layer was extracted a second time with an additional 100 mL of dichloromethane? Show calculations. Is doing a second time important? Explain.
