Results and discussion

Percent distribution in media

Air (%):
40.7
Water (%):
59.3

Any other information on results incl. tables

Over time, the uncharged substance will preferentially distribute into the compartments water (59.3%) and air (40.7%). However, since the model consideres the uncharged molecule, the distribution into water may be underestimated. The substance will primarily exist as a cation (pKa 10.68).
