You have 150 mL of 0.25 M n-propylamine and you shake this in a mixture of 90 mL of water and 50 mL of an organic solvent and let it achieve equilibrium. You removed the water layer and titrated it using 0.30 M HCl, where end point of the titration was achieved at around 42.5 mL. Calculate for the partition coefficient of n-propylamine and describe the affinity of the compound based on the value you obtain.
