What is the kp value (partition coefficient) for the ether


You weigh out 50mg of benzoic acid and dissolve it in 1mL of diethyl ether. This is then extracted with 1mL of water. The ether layer is removed, dried with sodium sulfate and the ether evaporated yielding 30mg of benzoic acid. What is the Kp value (partition coefficient) for the ether/water system?
