30% 3) Calculate the fraction of total 2,3,4,5-tetrachlorophenol (organic acid) that is present in the water phase of a dense fog (air-water volume ratio of about 105) at a pH = 2.0 and a temperature of 278 K. Assume a Δ a w H iof 70 kJ/mol for partitioning of this acid between air and water at 298 K. Assume also that the pKia is independent of temperature. Data for 2,3,4,5-tetrachlorophenol is available in Ap. C.

Hint: Fog is a suspension of tiny liquid water drops in air. In equilibrium, the acid will be distributed between the two phases. You are asked to calculate the ratio between the acid present in the liquid phase and the total amount of acid present in the two phases.

Acetic acid (AA) is initially dissolved in water, where the mass fraction of AA is 0.15. By contacting the water solution with hexanol (which does not dissolve in water), most of the AA is transferred fromthe water phase to the hexanol. The AA-hexanol stream leaving the extractor contains AA at a mass fraction of 0.10and the residual AA-water stream leaving the extractor contains AA at a mass fraction of 0.002. a.
