56. Inorganic salts such as LiCl or NaCl decrease solubility of organic species in water by salting out, consequently resulting in increased hydrophobic effect. See Breslow, R. Acc. Chem. Res. 1991, 24, 159-164 10.1021/ar00006a001

58. The P (n -octanol/ water partition coefficient) is defined as the ratio of the equilibrium concentration of a substance dissolved in a two-phase system, formed by two immiscible solvents (ranges of P is from 10-4 to 108, Log P > 0: hydrophobic; Log P < 0: hydrophilic). P = (c (n-octanol))/(c (n-water)).
