The a mixture of 4-tert-butylphenol and 2- chlorobenzoic acid is separate by the by using  bicarbonate solvent.

When solution of bicarbonate is added in mixture of 4-tert-butylphenol and 2- chlorobenzoic acid then 2- chlorobenzoic acid form a carboxylate ion whereas 4-tert-butylphenol  is underacted and filtered out.

Since, only 2- chlorobenzoic acid which is acid is convert into its conjugate base by solution of bicarbonate in mixture of 4-tert-butylphenol and 2- chlorobenzoic acid .

However, phenol is less acidic than carboxylic acid. Both phenol and carboxylic acid is soluble in organic solvent . At that point as the phenol isolates as an oil, one needs to cool the blend in an ice shower to encourage crystallization

Rom4ik [11]
Vitamin K and potassium are essential micronutrients the body needs to develop and function properly. The two share some things in common, but they’re not the same.

Each has a unique set of properties and purposes. Unlike vitamin K, potassium is not a vitamin. Rather, it’s a mineral.

On the periodic table, the chemical symbol for potassium is the letter K. Thus, people sometimes confuse potassium with vitamin K.

This article highlights some of the main similarities and differences between vitamin K and potassium.
