Abstract
Because of the wide application of Distribution Law, for it should hold for the distribution of a dissolved substance between any two phases, for instance, liquid-liquid, gas-liquid, liquid-solid, and so forth, this subject was choosen for further investigation. The tendency for a solute to distribute itself between two immiscible solvents, so that the concentration ratio is a constant, is a direct consequence of the thermodynamic requirements for equilibrium. The reactions of various organic and inorganic acids distributed between water and several organic solvents will be studied.
