Question

An equimolar liquid mixture of p-xylene and toluene is in contact with an aqueous phase in which the mole fractions of p-xylene and toluene are each 0.00003. Which direction is the p-xylene moving? The toluene?

if needed: (MWp-xylene: 106.2g/mol, solubility in water: 185 g/m3, vapor pressure:1170pa, logkow:3.15)

(MWtoluene: 92.1, solubility in water:515g/m3, vp:3800pa, logkow:2.69)

edit about direction**

that is all the question asked. but i think its from one compartment to other

Answer 1

How much I understand from your question I tried my best to answer it.
