The n-octanol-water partition coefficient, K ow is a partition coefficient for the two-phase system consisting of n-octanol and water. [1] K ow is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also called n-octanol-water partition ratio. [2] [3] [4]
The partition coefficient between n-Octanol and water is known as the n-octanol-water partition coefficient, or K ow. [62] It is also frequently referred to by the symbol P, especially in the English literature. It is also known as n-octanol-water partition ratio. [63] [64] [65]
The distribution of a compound between water and octanol is used to calculate the partition coefficient, P, of that molecule (often expressed as its logarithm to the base 10, log P). Water/octanol partitioning is a relatively good approximation of the partitioning between the cytosol and lipid membranes of living systems.
Octane is a component of gasoline and petroleum. Under standard temperature and pressure, octane is an odorless, colorless liquid. Like other short-chained alkanes with a low molecular weight, it is volatile, flammable, and toxic. Octane is 1.2 to 2 times more toxic than heptane. [5]
Trouton’s rule can be explained by using Boltzmann's definition of entropy to the relative change in free volume (that is, space available for movement) between the liquid and vapour phases. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is valid for many liquids; for instance, the entropy of vaporization of toluene is 87.30 J/(K·mol), that of benzene is 89.45 J/(K·mol ...

Another type of octane rating, called Motor Octane Number (MON), is determined at 900 rpm engine speed instead of the 600 rpm for RON. [2] MON testing uses a similar test engine to that used in RON testing, but with a preheated fuel mixture, higher engine speed, and variable ignition timing to further stress the fuel's knock resistance.
The conventional units for the solubility parameter are (calories per cm 3) 1/2, or cal 1/2 cm −3/2.The SI units are J 1/2 m −3/2, equivalent to the pascal 1/2. 1 calorie is equal to 4.184 J.
