Volatilization
An estimated pKa of 4.7(1) for palmitic acid indicates palmitic acid will exist almost entirely in the anion form at pH values of 5 to 9 and therefore volatilization from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(2). Palmitic acid is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon a vapor pressure of 3.8X10-7 mm Hg(3).

Soil Adsorption
The Koc of undissociated palmitic acid is estimated as 189,000(SRC), using a log Kow of 7.17(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that undissociated palmitic acid is expected to be immobile in soil. The estimated pKa of palmitic acid is 4.7(4), indicating that this compound will exist almost entirely in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(5).
