Best Answer

For Iodine in Chloroform & water, the distribution ratio is 250; hence at equilibrium, the iodine concentration in the chloroform phase is 250 times then in the water phase.

Explain the term distribution coefficient in organic chemistry?

Well let's take an example that we have an a container with both oil and water in it these are inmiscible, know, let's say there is elemental iodine I2 in this container, iodine is nonpolar, so there will be more dissolved in the oil (an organic non polar solvent) than the water (a nonorganic polar solvernt). However, there will be a trace amount of iodine dissolved in the water. The distribution coefficient for this oil, we will say equals K. K=(concentration in mol/L of I2 in oil)/(concentration in mol/L of I2 in water) The distribution constant describes thr ration of iodine concentration in the organic layer to that in water.

Which one is more polar iodoform and chloroform?

Chloroform is CHCl3 and Iodoform is CHI3 . Since, chlorine is more electronegative than iodine, it should be able to attract electrons more towards itself. Therefore, chloroform is more polar than iodoform.

What does coefficient mean when talking about chemical equations?

in equation H molecule and Iodine molecule combines to form 2HI. IN the product 2HI, 2 Is called coefficient. Not even in product reactens also has coefficient.


Iodoform gives the precipitate with AgNO3 on heating while chloroform does not Give reasons?

Well the covalent bond between chlorine and carbon will of greater strength than between iodine and carbon, since chlorine has a greater electronegativity and so is attracted to the bonded pair of electrons more strongly than iodine and so iodine will be able to be donated to the AgNO3 and react to form the AgI precipitate much more readily.
