Art [367]

The relative volumes of chloroform and water that should be used is 9:10

Concentration of solution in chloroform = $90$ ( moles of chloroform )

Concentration of solution in water = $10$ ( moles of water )

Dissociation constant at $25^oC$ ; $K_D = 10$

$K_D =$ Concentration of solution in chloroform / Concentration of solution in water

Meaning;

$K_D = \frac{\frac{mole\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ chloroform} }{\frac{mole\ of\ water}{volume\ of\ water} }$

Since $90$ mole is present in chloroform and $10$ mole is present in water, Total mole of Caffeine present is $100$

Now, we substitute our given values into the equation

$10 = \frac{\frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform} }{\frac{10}{volume\ of\ water} }\\\\10 *\frac{10}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform} \\\\\frac{100}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{volume\ of\ chloroform}\\\\\frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{90}{100}\\\\ \frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = \frac{9}{10}\\\\ \frac{volume\ of\ chloroform}{volume\ of\ water} = 9:10$
