“…The)' postulate that transfer of solute out of a solvent to which it adheres by hydrogen bonding Figure 3. Comparison between actual and predicted numbers of plates required for the 65 separations in group A (Table VII gives some relevant details): <, data of Allerton, Strom, and Treybal (1943); O, data, of Garner, Ellis, and Fosbury (1953); 0/ data of Garner, Ellis, and Hill (1955); V, data of Goldberger and Benenati (1959); , data of Row, Koffolt, and Withrow (1 941); , data of Treybal and Dumoulin (1 942) occurs much less readily than from a solvent to which it is linked by the relatively weaker van der Waals forces. Thus, when transferring diethylamine in alternate directions between toluene and water, Garner, Ellis, and Hill (1955) found the transfer rate from toluene to be several fold greater than from water.…”
