Suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 mL of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [CH3(CN)2]], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. The solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 mL, and in water is 13.3 g/100 mL. Keeping in mind that Kd is the ratio of solubilities in the two solvents what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction by a 100-mL portion of ether
