Abstract
The model for characterization of hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity and l ipophilicity of compounds is presented. It is based on the vapour-to-s olvent coefficients for hydrophilicity and lipophilicity and the parti tion coefficient for hydrophobicity. It is shown that some apparently contradictory facts can be understood on the basis of this model.
