In an investigation of the transfer of solute molecules across the liquid‐liquid interface, the transfer of acetic acid, benzoic acid, oleic acid, and cholesterol between benzene and water was measured. Experiments were carried out with a laminar jet apparatus wherein the organic phase was spread as a thin film on the surface of an aqueous jet. The results indicate that any interfacial resistance in these systems is negligibly small.
