If it's for water and another organic solvent:
K= (total sample(g)- xg)/(xg/ml water)
xg= the ammount of sample left in water
~since the ammount xg is left in the water then, the ammount of sample transfered over to the organic solvent is total sample - xg
K= (total sample(g)- xg)/(xg/ml water)
xg= the ammount of sample left in water
~since the ammount xg is left in the water then, the ammount of sample transfered over to the organic solvent is total sample - xg
