an organic phase) must have properties closely similar to those of the solvent,
rendering g* s or c H small. If the solute forms an ideal solution (or close to it)
with the organic phase, the partition isotherm will then be linear because g* s is
essentially 1, or c H is close to zero, at all concentrations.
