A solute distributes itself between two non-miscible solvents in contact with each other in such a way that, at a constant temperature, the ratio of its concentrations in two layers is constant, irrespective of its total amount". This is

A The distribution law
B Followed from Margule's equation
C A corollary of Henry's law
D None of these

Correct Answer: The distribution law

The distribution laws says that for two non-miscible solvents will be in equilibrium if the chemical potential of solute is same in both the phases the concentration need not be equal but the ratio of concentrations will be remains constant once equilibrium is reached.

Pharmacists recently conducted a study with respect to the reasons their customers purchased eye drops to soothe eye dryness. Dry eyes were more frequently experienced by customers who wore contact lenses than by custorners who did not wear contact lenses. The pharmacists concluded that wearing contact lenses, by itself, can cause contact wearers to have dry eyes.
Critical solution temperature (or the con-solute temperature) for partially miscible liquids (e.g., phenol-water) is the minimum temperature at which
